We had a lot to be thankful for this year. Mom's recovery has been amazing. It is true her right arm is slow and her speech continues to frustrate her, but she continues to get better each month that goes by. It has been a joy to see her get back to doing things she did pre-stroke. We had a late dinner on Thanksgiving with Kim and her family and John and Linda. We played games, laughed and ate. We ate a lot! Imagine that?
Lauren entertained us with her flute.
Mike fried a turkey again this year and it did not disappoint.
The weather was nice on Thanksgiving so Jay, Nick and Luke enjoyed playing together.
Too much Thanksgiving for these dogs!.
On Saturday we headed to Springfield for Jocelyn's first birthday party.
Mike fixed Michelle's piano. He was a good sport because he was not thrilled to be doing the work in the middle of a birthday party. I included this picture because two girls wanted to come up and chat with Mike while he was working. Several people were interested in what he was doing. Ha. As always he did great work.
Another activity that consumed much of our time this weekend was Jay's basketball tournament. It started on Wednesday night and went through Saturday night. His team won one game and we got to see Jay play in two of the three games. Between Jay and Nick, their basketball season has a total of 60 games. Can you say busy? I'll have some serious bleacher butt come March! Ugh.
