Thanksgiving!
Thursday, November 23, 2006Got up, grabbed a shower. Grandma baked some biscuits, so I felt obliged to eat a few!
I went over to Dwight’s for dinner - Josh, Teresa and the kids were over. I went over early, and we waited for Josh / Teresa to arrive (with 3 kids in car seats, such an endeavor does take some time.) Finally Renita called, and they were just 1 mile away. Dwight asked me to ask Russ, Matty and Anna over for dinner, which I did. They hadn’t eaten breakfast yet, and they made it just 10 minutes late (11:10).
So we ate.
After, I took off to pick up Mom / Dad at the airport. I drove down through Grayville, and made it to the airport with very little traffic. Evansville airport has a 15 minute parking just before the Arrivals section, so you can drop your car and walk in np. I did, and my folks were looking to rent a car - but it was only $75 a day, so they opted to opt out.
We drove to West Salem through Mt. Carmel and Friendsville - a route I’ve never taken before (the GPS w/ maps helped out!)
I dropped them off at Doug’s - and hung around a little as we decided what to do (as far as where to have Thanksgiving dinner and all that.) Doug’s house had no tables, or chairs, or fridge, or plates or a lot of other things! I think all in all it was decided to have it over at Bob’s.
So I left, to head back to Browns - and another supper at Dwight’s. This time with Josh, Chris and Elliot. This time my folks came over with the help of Bob’s truck.
