Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

[elfs]

It has been a Thanksgiving feast. Despite having no guests for dinner (although shastaw and her beau were sweet enough to stop by and have a noontime snack), Omaha cooked a massive meal, with a twelve pound bird, roasted green beans, stuffing, mashed potatoes, beautiful spiral rolls, cranberry salsa, italian sodas, with pumpkin pie and warm spiced apple cider for dinner.

Now I know what being stunned by carbs really feels like. The girls ate heartily, which was a surprise. Even the cat got a bit of the feast.

And now, heartily full and exhausted, I must take two handfuls of beautiful young womanhood, get them bathed and put them to bed. "We don't wanna! There's no school tomorrow! Can we stay up until ten?" But I'm thankful for them, and for Omaha, all of whom make it worth getting up in the morning.

Now I have this image of you with a squirmy young thing tucked under each arm, each screaming like a banshee while you stumble valiantly towards the (gasp) bath tub. ;)
