Me: Turkey cleaned...check.

Bob and I are in charge of the turkey this year. Interesting since we're rookies. Thanks so much to Bob's mom who was our turkey hotline. We'll be getting all of the Arizonans together at Mike and Abbie's tomorrow. Agenda: dinner, dessert, hiking, football, leftovers, movie.

Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!

Me: Bob and I took Kavan and my mom to visit Joan and Dean today. It was a lovely day and we enjoyed a nice lunch on their patio. Mom is staying with them at Superstition Mountain until Thanksgiving.

Me: Harley and I chatting about our day...

I told Harley about the good ride Bob and I had this morning. Harley said she saw two bunnies in the desert. I expressed it was fun to spend the afternoon with my mom at the Scottsdale Art Festival. Harley exclaimed that she really enjoyed her dinner & loves treats. I confessed that Bob, Mom & I ate a whole pound of See's chocolate this evening. 

It was a nice talk!

Martin: Adrian and Ruth at Adrian's high school graduation.

Me: It was a good game but The Phoenix Suns lost to the Miami Heat.

Troy treated Jimmy, Bob and I to dinner at the Blue Moon Club and awesome seats! Up close to see all the players including superstar, Lebron James.

Me: Rare for me to wear a suit but a graduation is worth the effort.

Me: Bob painting the trim on our house. I like it much better than the peach it's been. Not sure what color (or when) we'll paint the whole house. It will likely be a light tan/cream. 

Today's highlights:

Garage sales - found some good things!

Lunch with Mom and Joan at The Farm; a cute outdoor cafe where you eat on picnic tables under big shade trees. Fun!

New placemats! Pat sent us beautiful placemats (sewn by her). So cute, thank you!
