I survived Thanksgiving. I wasn't sure how I was going to get it all done with everything else going on, but I did.

Sarah, my partner in crime, helped so that was appreciated. We have been preparing Thanksgiving and Christmas meals for the family together for quite a few years and we have it down pretty well.

The whole family seemed to enjoy their meal and conversation, so all in all I think it was a success.

Once Thanksgiving was over it was time to get the paper situated for the next week. I normally would have enjoyed a few relaxing days at home, but Sunday I was leaving for Rochester....
