Wednesday night I kicked off my Thanksgiving celebration by going for drinks after a great workout. It was nice to spend time with these ladies (away from the gym) but it cost me. I was up until 3:30 am cooking.

Thursday I kicked off Thanksgiving with a great 2 hour workout followed by a delicious meal and some family from Texas visiting. Our 'little' cousin was also celebrating his 21st B-day. Nothing makes you feel old like still thinking of someone as 5 but knowing they're 21. Sorry, no pictures of this. Some things are better left undocumented.

Friday I escaped the daily grind and headed up the mountains to visit family. We ended up at this small town celebration where most stores were giving out free hot cocoa or wine, great discounts, there was a horse drawn carriage, performers, Santa and the Mrs, and I got to see the newly redone building that housed the first brothel in CA.
Saturday we strolled through a quaint little town and I discovered two of the best wines I've ever tasted. Both are Scott Harvey wines - Jana Riesling and the InZINerator. After a gazillion years I finally found a bottle of wine I could share with my husband.

Traveling on the Sunday after Thanksgiving made us a statistic. We were 3 of the millions of people that traveled this day. As we sat in stop-n-go traffic for an extra 1.5 hours I was sure to mention this. I also mentioned that next time we should leave a day early or later. Luckily, I had a beautiful sky and Christmas carols to sing to pass the time. That is until my son begged me to play 'real' music.
