Thanksgiving was really nice this year. We drove up to Massachusetts to spend the day and most of the weekend with my family. The meal was delicious, and the company was excellent (which isn't always the case with your family. Or at least with my family!). We ate in the living room at a long wooden table in front of a warm crackling fire in my beloved old house in my hometown. I was thankful for all of those things.
The calm before the storm
The early arrivals to the table (Peter, my brother Ben--who is pointedly looking the other way, and my niece Hayley)
