The Thomas Family had a fantastic Thanksgiving! We deep fried a turkey and it came out fabulous! We had lots of yummy food, lots of games were played and of course falling asleep due to the "turkey hormone". I'm not going to try to spell it!
We of course being the over achieving and ever procrastinating family we are (isn't that an oxymoron?) started ANOTHER building project on our old house. Of course it was much needed.
Our old deck was falling apart. It literally had a hole and was partially collapsing on one side. It was dangerous. So we decided to suck it up and spend what little we had in savings to build a new deck!
Out with the old:
And in with the new:
This was Walt's Christmas present to me. The new deck is amazing. He's had help from family (which has been awesome!). They are cheap labor and will readily let me feed them my experimental food! LOL
The deck is just about complete.....I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! I've even gone as far as trying to pick out some patio furniture. I am determined to have a winter BBQ!
The kids had an awesome Christmas. I think they got everything on their Santa list...and then some. We were very blessed this year and are thankful for EVERYTHING. This has been a rough year and we have been lucky and blessed.
As the new year approaches I hope everyone has a healthy and safe New Years Eve!
