Thanksgiving!

I know it has been awhile since I have blogged. Life is busy with family, Fred and Football. Which we will now refer to as the triple "F's". So I will try to catch up a bit here.
This was the turkey I cooked on my Mom's birthday (which we still celebrate). It was in August, but ya get my drift here! There's a turkey, there's stuffing, there's family and lots of other food.
So, it's turkey day! (Only in Canada, eh!) I love thanksgiving because it reminds us to think about all we are thankful for and celebrate it with the ones we love. I have so much to be thankful for and I try not to take even the little things for granted, but like everyone I know I do. I have a wonderful husband who is my soulmate and best friend all in one, I have a millionaires family, a daughter and son (without the million), I have a terrific son-in-law and 3 amazing grandchildren. Some family members have become distant, and I'm okay with that. We all make choices and I believe everything happens for a reason. What goes around, comes around. And of course I have "Freddie Spaghetti", that is our nick name for Fred. Some times it should be "Fred the Fiend" but I sure do love that dog to bits. He came into our lives at a very difficult time and brought so much happiness(and pain; painful bites and scratches :)with him and we have never looked back! (okay, maybe once!)
Today Thanksgiving Dinner is going to be at our daughter's house. Her first turkey dinner and I am actually looking forward to just going over there for dinner. Walking into her house and smelling the turkey!
Last but not least I am so thankful that the DETROIT LIONS WHIPPED THE RAMS BUTT YESTERDAY!! They finally won a game I was at!! Nate even got a touchdown! This sounds more like Christmas, doesn't it? Ah, but this is another post, I still have there first regular season game we attended to post. See ya there!
