Well, I spent my first holiday away from my family this year, technically I still spent it with my family because I was with the Hilton side of the family in Sacramento. I took the day off on Wednesday and we drove the 8 hours to California.
Bill and I have made it a new tradition to listen to a book on CD while we travel in the car, and this time we were hooked on a book by Margaret Haddix Peterson called "Missing". It turned a little sci fi toward the end, but otherwise it was really good.
Thanksgiving consisted of 30 people, a lot of pie, ham, stuffing, and almost no turkey! Bill's parents don't have a working oven, so they bought a roaster to make the turkey in- but the turkey wouldn't cooperate! My new favorite that Bill's mom makes now is Thanksgiving stuffing- yum! But Stove Top still comes in a close second:)
Books on CD, now there is a way to travel to pass the time. However, the boys would complain. Maybe when they are older and all have their own Ipods??? Miss you...glad you had a great Thanksgiving.
