thanksgiving update
well i had about the best thanksgiving i can remember. mom, dad, lynnie and lance came over on wednesday night about 8 and we poured drinks and started cooking. everyone was so sweet to caden. we woke up early on thanksgiving and me mommie and lyn started cooking around 8:30 in the morning. we had turkey marinated in brine for 2 days and stuffed with apples, pears, cinnamon sticks, onion and fresh rosemary and sage. lynnie made bourbon pecan pie. and stuffing. and mommie's delicious potato casserole. mommie made green beans and kept everything going right on time. brian's dad and stepmom came over with a bottle of crown royal and a honey ham. we had rolls and mom showed me how to make my granny's giblet gravy. it was good, but it was better before i actually saw a NECK BONE AND GIBLETS. really creeped me out. giblets look like turkey balls. anyway, on friday me lyn, brian and lance went bar hopping. we went to huey's then walked to the blue monkey where we consumed shots and rum and vodka and red bulls. then we walked to the hi tone where we saw some live music, drank more and took tequila shots. we danced and me and brian made out. i saw my old friend, poptart. i haven't seen him in a couple years so that was nice. then mom and dad called and said caden needed me. dad picked us up. while we were in the parking lot lance gave a bum some money to rap and brian tried to start a fight. i held him back- as always -anyway then we came home and got even more fuct up. i woke up on saturday with the worst hangover i've had in years. plus we spent ALOT of money. A WAY LOT. but it was worth it.saturday afternoon mom lyn and i went downtown and to the peabody hotel, then a local bar called sleep out louies and had drinks. that was probably my favorite part of the week. we laughed so much and it was great to be able to be with them. they left around midnight and as soon as they were out the door i burst into tears. i always do when they leave. mostly because i'm so happy that i got to spend time with them and i want more. every one of them seem to have their own kind of bond with caden and i love to see their interactions. all in all BEST THANKSGIVING EVER!! thanks to everyone who was a part of it. I LOVE YA'LL!!!!!!!
