Post Thanksgiving Lunch

Wow, we had it all, the turkey, the trimmings, the tall tales and………………throw up! I had everybody finally seated and had just taken a couple of bites when my grandson sitting right across from me made a few “burping” sounds and then, it was all over………..needless to say, my meal was over. His mother, my daughter, sitting at another table, didn’t even know what went on. We got it cleaned up, the plate rinsed out and washed his mouth out, and I look over and she is still just sitting, laughing, enjoying her meal and just having a grand time. Marie, my son-in-law’s mom fell off the curb upon arrival to our house and dropped the deviled eggs. Cameron had to go up to Wallgreens to get a laxitive.  We actually got a video of Frosty snoring in the chair. Everyone is gone and we are cleaning up and putting the food away, when we look in the living room only to discover that everyone had not left. We had one guest who was still here until we hear a knock on the door, and we open it to our “left over guests’  sister who had come back after him. Guess she forgot he was riding with them. We have had “left over food” on Thanksgiving, but this was a first to have a left over guests. Boy, I cannot wait until Christmas! I’m thinking that Luby’s is sounding pretty good and maybe Frosty and I can go up and eat with the “oldies” around 5:30. No left over food, no left over guests, no mess to clean up, but then……………….where would the memories be? I think I will just chance it and begin to write my evite for Christmas dinner. After all, we now have a great blackmail video of Frosty. That should get me quite a few gifts this year! Hope your Thanksgiving day was blessed. We had a great day and enjoyed so much having 5 families ranging in ages from 88 to 4 months all sitting around the table. What a way to celebrate God’s goodness.
