The day began with Bill heading into the Glass&#8217;s house while I got side-dishes ready for our dinner. I imagined a leisurely morning complete with time for a nice walk, but found myself still puttering around the kitchen when Bill arrived home nearly 4 hours later. The beauty of it all is that I love days that I can spend playing in the kitchen! Cooking Thanksgiving dinner is something I truly enjoy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I put Christmas music on in the background and occasionally flipped over to the Macy&#8217;s Parade. Should I even admit that I got a little choked up when Neil Diamond sang &#8220;America&#8221;? I don&#8217;t know what it is about parades. They make me strangely sentimental.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">When Bill got home he helped finish up a few household chores, and the Glass family made their way out about an hour later. We had a nice dinner together, then Sawyer and I raced some cars in the utility room while April &amp; Jesse cleaned up the kitchen. Lets see, my little buddy and I also spent time jumping on the bed and eating lots of sugar. It&#8217;s nice to be an aunt. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0226.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2141\" title=\"IMG_0226\" src=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0226-233x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"233\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0226-233x300.jpg 233w, http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0226.jpg 499w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 233px) 100vw, 233px\" \/> <\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0230.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2142\" title=\"IMG_0230\" src=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0230.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"226\" height=\"302\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0230.jpg 480w, http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0230-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 226px) 100vw, 226px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0218.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2137\" title=\"IMG_0218\" src=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0218-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0218-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2011\/11\/IMG_0218.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Bill and I spent the afternoon watching the rest of Back to the Future, and when my dad got home we watched Elf.
