Thanksgiving holiday

Nov 24, 2006 17:27

I went to my parent's house for Thanksgiving and we went to see Stranger than Fiction on Wednesday afternoon. That evening, around 8 o'clock, Aunt Sue and Uncle Terry and Aunt Jane and my cousin Lendie arrived at our house, just as my mom was taking out the over the ranbow mac and cheese out of the oven. Luckily there was enough for everyone. Then Dad got out the wine and Aunt Sue got pretty drunk, haha! I brought my straightening iron and Lendie straightened it for me, so now it looks much better. We also played two games of Stratego: I captured her flag the first time, and the second time I had to forfeit because she killed all my men. Around 11 o'clock, Bill came with Maggie. He was going to bring Kelly (who was going to bring her dog, Stanley), but decided not to come at the last minute.

On Thanksgiving we had the usual traditional dinner of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and dressing, green bean cassorole, rudabega, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes, pickles/olives/cherry rings with an assorment of pecan, pumpkin, and cherry pie for dessert. After dinner my dad and uncle and brother watched football and Lendie and I played another game of Stratego, this time we played with the tournament rules and I won again. My relatives left around four in the afternoon and Bill and I played a couple games of Stratego and he won both times, ugh! Then we played Monopoly with Mac and Maggie. I was the car, Mac was the top hat (because he's a top cat!), Bill was the ship, and Maggie was the dog. (Because she's a dog!) I made fun of Bill because he was the first to go and a dog and a cat beat him. Maggie ended up winning the game.

After watching Survivor and Grey's Anatomy, we went to the theaters where Bill and Dad saw Borat. Since I had already seen it and Mom didn't want to see it, we went to Happy Feet instead. After the movies, Bill and Dad kept quoting Borat. "This is niiice!" "High-five!" LOL. Bill said he laughed so hard he got a headache!

I came back home today around two.
