Holidays just haven't been the same since Mom and Dad died. We always shared our holidays with them. My mom enjoyed not having to cook and being able to just relax and visit. I enjoyed having the house full and cooking.
Time has moved on and holidays are quiet with usually just Jim, Austin and me these days. It gives me time to reflect on past holidays with the kids and my parents. I worried so about the food turning out perfect, and getting just the right pose for our "Norman Rockwell" family picture at the table. With those days gone I am glad I have the wonderful memories we made.
Happy Thanksgiving!!
