We made a green bean casserole from scratch (no canned ingredients here), a cranberry and apple chutney, fresh fruit salad, and a brussel sprout salad as our contribution (along with half a case of Gruet Wines) to the family Thanksgiving Meal. We all met over at Cynthia and Felix’s new home and were in awe of the renovations they had made to the house since they bought it in March. Felix’s sister Deborah was in from Austin. Lauren arrived with Olivia and Avery in tow. Felix’s daughter Ava popped in for a visit and Brian showed up after his workout. There was plenty of food and drink for all and we definitely indulged ourselves to the fine food and drink. By the end of the night, Olivia and Avery had worn not only their parents out, but also all of the rest of us. So much energy! It was great to be with family again after a long 9 months on the road!
