Turkey... take TWO

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday! I don't know if it is Maw Maw's tasty turkey and dressing or the simplicity of the holiday spent with family, but it has, is and probably always will be my favorite!

Thursday we headed over to Maw Maw's for a feast! All the usual suspects were there and we had a wonderful day together! Best part was the game of charades. My Aunt Cathy and James were up first.  James (who is usually pretty quite around this rowdy crew) volunteered to go first. (this game is very loosy goosy, no rules, and most of the times we make it up as we go). So in written word, this is my best explanation of James' charade:

James: holds 3 fingers up
turkeys: 3 words
 
James: 1 finger up
turkeys: first word
 
James: pulls ear
turkeys: sound like
 
James: motions putting a hat on his head
turkeys: hat
 
James: pulls ear
turkeys: sounds like hat... cat
 
James: finger to nose
turkeys: nose, snot...
 
from the gaggle: finger on nose mean you guessed the right word
 
James: 3 fingers up
turkeys: third word
 
James: turns to side and rubs belly, then extends his hands to show big belly
turkeys: belly, pregnant
 
James: again with the touching nose
turkeys: again with the snot/nose response
 
turkeys: cat is pregnant??? what cat? huh?
Cathy: "and I am due in May"
 
turkeys: cat is pregnant, AHHHH CATHY IS PREGNANT!!!

yep folks, Cathy and James are adding another little gobbler to our family! AND as tradition would have it, my grandmother had Cathy at 40 and Cathy is going to have her bundle of beauty at 40!!! How awesome is that???

This gave us another thing to be so thankful for! AND I am super excited that I will get to hold that sweet baby next Thanksgiving!   P Daddy was super pumped too, Cathy is the first preggers lady he has met!

Best Thanksgiving a girl could ask for!

We all went home and fell deep into a turkey induced coma!

Keep in touch...
