Burnt Turkey Day

D and I went over to his parent's house today (obviously since we can't go to my mom's). It was pretty cool. We got there a little late, but just as all the food was done cooking.

There was turkey, ham, super rice (we brought that), stuffing, green beans, cheddar/broccoli casserole, salad with onions, peas, boiled eggs, and some kind of kick butt dressing mixed into it. I got some leftovers of that.

It was also D's neice's birthday so there was birthday cake there in addition to the Bourbon Pecan pie. That pie was so tasty warmed up with vanilla ice cream on top. Yummy!

Every once in a while we could hear gunshots from the neighbor's target shooting. D said it's pretty much a family (neighborhood) tradition to target shoot on Thanksgiving, but the only guns that had been brought were the carry pistols he and his brother Mike have with them. So, sufficed to say, we all didn't shoot. :-(

Um...what else...not too much going on. Still won't be able to afford the trip home for christmas so I'm just waiting on a check from my dad to get a couple things to send to my brother. Also have a visit coming up from family. My oldest sister, her two daughters, and my dad (:-P) will be coming down for a couple days in early Dec. I guess I'm kinda looking forward to it, but I'm sure I'll breathe a big sigh of relief when it's just me and D again.

Well, I'm off to bed...or maybe to read a little bit before bed.
