Thanksgiving Day was great fun. I woke Ben up at 7:50 AM, and we were off! (I love you, puppy!)

We visited with family in Monroe and Middletown, OH. We ate LOTS of food and drank a little wine. I started to poop out about 4, but we kept going until 8-ish. Ben’s family is just as lovely as ever. The cousins are all taller; what are they putting in the cafeteria food these days?!

Every time we visit our family, either side really, I always think, “Why don’t we do this more often?” I feel so much warmth and kindness and love, and who ever gets enough of those fuzzy things?
