Roasted brussels sprouts
A Thanksgiving table waiting for the guests
A brother and his turkey
A bowl of nuts (could be representative of our family??) with a nutcracker from our grandparents
Another brother, and an uncle still willing to make the trip
Beautiful weather, and a beautiful late afternoon moon
a sweet spouse (my beloved companion) and a dear aunt
Sasha, who sometimes waits patiently (and usually not)
The groaning board produced by a family full of good cooks
And a next great day, starting a wonderful brother-in-law roasting another round of brussels sprouts
A mother-in-law still full of songs, stories and the joy of life
The medicines that cure some ills
The expert turkey-carving cousin and the brilliant turkey resulting from collaboration with the aforementioned sprout-roasting brother-in-law (and somehow here I am thinking of the "kooky uncles and crazy antics" referred to by our friend Philip in this essay)
The second beautiful day, perfect for sisters walking to the dam,
The wonderful daughters who made time to share both Thanksgivings with us
The fun-loving families ready to play together ...
In sum: I am thankful for a life that includes the sweetness of two beautiful days of family gathering.
I love the photos, captions, sentiments, and our family! Thanks for sharing these wonderful pictures! xox liz
