Thanksgiving and a weekend at home

Sometimes my family is so busy. I'm always at either at friend's houses, the ice skating rink, ballet, or working on homework. But, I finally got to slow down for a long weekend for Thanksgiving. We made a huge feast and ate and ate all afternoon. Kit's family was so thankful for all the help we've been giving them through the hard times, she brought the turkey! Can you believe that? We also had mashed potatoes, green beans, cranberry sauce, peas, candied yams, and more! Oh gosh, just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

We also set up the Christmas tree! Every year my family sets it up the day after Thanksgiving, and we have a fire, wrap a few Christmas presents (if we have any by then) and eat Thanksgiving leftovers. The kitties love it, because they think the Christmas tree is F-U-N! It is so cute to watch them playing.

Here are two photos from the weekend, the first is our Thanksgiving feast, the second is Mama and I petting Mabel. (Can you believe how fat she is, she's almost the size of me, sheesh!)
