Turkey Day... Fast Approaching.

Well here we are... three days away from our Friday Thanksgiving. I'm gathering all my pieces and seemingly have my act together. We've got a good crowd this year... 12 adults, 4 kids, 1 toddler and 1 baby... and a delicious menu... OF COURSE! :) There's a been a bit of shifting on the attendee's... he's not coming, she's not coming, he IS coming... blah, blah, blah... but I've finally pinned it all down. Phew!

I did forget, however, that this week I'm taking the small girl to the Ballet. I meant to give her the tickets as a birthday gift, but good ole' jet lag got the better of me and I only remembered last week! I told her about it and and all she knows is that it's a surprise. I think her head's about to explode! She keeps making guesses every day... she hasn't come close once, so I'm delighted. :) Unfortunately, the ballet is on Wednesday, which is a crucial preparation day for my dinner... I guess I'll just be up a little late... I can survive on 6 hours sleep, I've done much worse (like last night when the small fella was up ALL NIGHT... no really... with tummy, teeth and throat problems).

Never, EVER boring in the land of McSweeney, I tell ya!

I'm looking forward to the dinner... It's going to be a real family affair. Four different couples with their kids, grandparents, a pseudo aunt and a pseudo uncle. It's going to be all warm and fuzzy all over. I can't wait.

I'll post pics over the weekend... I'm hoping to catch at least ONE person with their top button undone!
