Almost Thanksgiving!

I can't believe Thanksgiving is almost here! Time sure does fly! We will be having Jeremy's family over to our house for a couple of days over Thanksgiving. We are looking forward to seeing our niece Maggie and our nephew Hank! Our Thanksgiving menu will consist of Turkey, Ham, Potatoes, Gravy, Green bean casserole, Cranberry sauce (just for you Jan!), and Rolls. We will then have Pumpkin Cheesecake for dessert! We are looking forward to it.
I was home by myself this weekend so Jan, my mother-in-law came to stay with me. Jeremy had a conference in Chicago that I was supposed to attend as well, but thought I should stay home instead. It was going to be a really busy weekend. He got to Chicago Friday night around 6 and left Saturday morning around 10, which he then headed to Morrison, IL to attend the GCMS high school state semi final football game. Morrison is 3 1/2 hours from Gibson City. He got home last night around 7:30 to turn around and leave again this morning at 4a.m. to go deer hunting.
Jan and I had fun. We went to a few places in GC Friday night and pretty much lounged around the house. We went to Champaign Saturday and they bought us a new Christmas tree for our new house in honor of Jeremy's Grandma Darnell that passed away this summer. I will be putting up our trees next weekend. I can't wait. We then enjoyed the rest of the day relaxing at home with the dogs. Jan left this morning and I have been somewhat lazy all day. I did manage to get our new address photo cards all ready to be mailed out. That was a huge task since I needed to locate some addresses. Thank goodness for whitepages.com.
Unfortunately, the GCMS Falcons lost their game but had a great season this year. It was exciting to watch. We heard the team get a police escort out of town yesterday and heard them come back into town last night.
I am looking forward to having a short work week this week. It will be nice to have a 4 day weekend. I am sure Jan and I will try to hit up some Black Friday shopping! It is always a good time.
Hope everyone has a great week!
