Making Lemonade for Thanksgiving

When life gives you lemons... make lemonade.  That is exactly what our family did this Thanksgiving. 

My Grandma is in the hospital right now, so we all met at the hospital yesterday.  With Grandma's situation, we weren't able to have a home cooked Thanksgiving meal.  Cracker Barrel did our cooking for us this year.  It was delicious, inexpensive and convenient.  Exactly what we all needed this year. 

After lunch, we went back to the hospital where the guys enjoyed the Cowboys game from the waiting room. 

We enjoyed our time with Grandma, Mom, Dad, Auntie Jan, Uncle Joe, Aunt Judy, Randy, Tammy and Cheyanne!  I think there was some concern about what Thanksgiving would be like this year.  Everyone pulled together to make it a wonderful day.  The emphasis was taken off the food and put where it belongs - being thankful for all of our many blessings.

Watching football at the hospital... he was totally posing.  He really didn't scream and yell in the waiting room.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  There were many family members that we didn't get to see this year.  We missed you!
