We enjoyed our little holiday, but were saddened by the absence of Missy, who had to work, and the Chards, who were out having fun in southern Utah. Dave performed a masterful job of turkey carving, and we shall be certain to always have rubber gloves at the ready for future turkey adventures. Another cause for sadness was little Evelyn, who was battling a fever and absolutely not feeling well. She was content to be held by her Daddy for the duration, but her tummy refused to hang onto her dinner. Michele's sweet potatoes and apples were delicious, and Chris and Sami did a fine job of preparing the plain sweet potatoes. I think a fine time was had by all who were here.
