Happy Thanksgiving

Greetings from Dallas!

Today started off with a bang. Waffles for breakfast and then family argument 1) Where is Aunt Georgia spending Thanksgiving? Georgia - "I just said I was invited to spend it with Jason and Maria, I didn't say I was going to go." Pops - "Ah hell, she said she was going to Jason's and I said, 'well good for you'. If you hadn't called her, we would have left her behind." After we determined that Georgia was indeed going to lunch with us we headed to Cracker Barrel for our traditional mediocre Thanksgiving lunch. The restaurant was crowded with lazy people who don't cook and the usual nasty smokers who ruin every family restaurant in Texas.
Later today, after the Cowboys lost spectacularly, came family argument 2) Pops controls the TV, "If Bill wants to watch Survivor, he can go in the back bedroom, so what should we watch Lisa?"
And finally after cherry pie, pizza, and pecan pie came family argument 3) "Lisa are you going to eat all night? I don't want the kitchen dirty late, I have to turn on the dishwasher and you don't know how."

God I love my family, they make life so much fun. Next year we are having thanksgiving in Nacogdoches. Bill and I will prepare all of the food and everyone can just show up. We will get satellite and several TVs just for that day so no one has to go to a back bedroom. Aunt Georgia has already been invited. Katie and Scott can do the dishes.
