"gobble 'til you wobble!"

One reason I love working in a school system? LONG breaks! I just got back from spending SIX days in Raleigh with family and friends celebrating Thanksgiving. I filled the week with New Moon (yes, again), UNC basketball and football, Hurricanes hockey, catching up with high school friends - and of course, plenty of eating!!!

On Thanksgiving day we had 19 Mann's, McBryde's, and Spitals to the house for a delicious lunch and quality family time! We ate and ate, napped a little and enjoyed catching up! We missed Alston and those who couldn't make it this year, but we enjoyed great North Carolina weather and had a good time!

Kyle loved his TURKEY HAT!

Mom's decorated dining room table

 The Lillies (my fav-o-rite flowers!) in the kitchen!

Ellen and Me at the CANES game! (too bad we lost...oh well, we made it on the JumboTron. twice.)

It was Adam's first hockey game ever ... and he did not make it on the JumboTron. at all.

Tailgating for the State/Carolina game with some of my favorites!

(too bad we also lost this game)
