Turkey for you, and, turkey for me...










There's so much to tell about the Wise Family Thanksgiving here in Raleigh, NC. First of all, Bennett put an hour to hour 5 day itinerary together about 2 months ahead of time and made about 15 phone calls to "review it" with all the participants. Needless to say some liked that, some didn't! Everyone was great and brought food, so I didn't have to do very much which was so nice and helped me to relax and enjoy getting a chance to talk to everyone. And we talked A LOT. In fact there were several up-until-2am nights!
The kids had a great time as well. With so many adults around they went to the park three times a day! We enjoyed some weather in the 70's, perfect for getting outside. On a cooler day, we set up the moonbounce I bought at a yard sale for $15 in the garage and the kids had a ball getting some energy out. April made the girls matching nightgowns which were sooo cute. I didn't get a picture of all the kids together, I must have been busy!
Overall, this was a great time. We were all together for several days and didn't leave the house practically--a great bonding experience.

You mean, everyone didn't LOVE the itinerary? You weren't completely SOOTHED by the organization of it all? No?
