Turkey Day

Here is a handy list of ways to confirm that your Thanksgiving was special:

If the turkey was bigger than the new baby at the table, it was special
If there were placecards, it was special
 If there was a new baby (see first item above), it was special

 If you got to "hang out" with the N's, it was special
 If 3 generations of family worked together to build an "I am Thankful" tree, it was special


If 20+ family members gathered at one table, it was special. 
If one of those peeps flew in from London as a surprise, it was special.
If parents of a 1 week old baby hosted the gathering (see first item on this list), it was special. 
If those new parents (above) let TEN of those 20+ people spend SEVERAL nights IN THEIR HOUSE WITH THEM,  they are f-ing crazy it was special. 
If you got to squeeze in a run along the ocean with your super running sis in law, it was special.
If there were laughs and tears around the table as each guest shared what they were thankful for, it was special.
If you had your first taste of Pieku pies, it was special
If 4 of Annie's 5 kids were together, it was special
Did I mention there was a new baby?!?!  If there was a new baby new baby new baby, it was special.
