I love Thanksgiving. It's one of those comfortable holidays where the focus is on family and good hearty food and not candy, buying presents, or a particular color (you know: like red for Valetine's day or green for St Patrick's Day or yellow and purple for mardi gras :)
We went to Kansas to celebrate Turkey day Berger style and had a great time. Why do the long weekends go so fast?
 |
| Nate at SFO wondering where our pat-down was. He and I declined the scanner, but then there wasn't a pat down. Huh? |
 |
| Uncle Brian and Blue chase Nate around the house. Brian was a very willing playmate for his nephew :) |
 |
| Nate and Tante Claire play the Stickers-On-The-Nose game, Grammy opts out. |
 |
| Cousin Valentine is fun to snuggle with. Isn't this the best photo? I love Nate's smile! |
 |
| The Bergers, Dempseys, O'Deas and Umans clans at Blue Koi. Claire and Aunt Mady ordered quite well, though I would have not ordered 6 China Moons. Just sayin. |
 |
| A very proud Grandpa and his turkey! The bird was super good this year, maybe because of the chicken broth in the drip pan? |
 |
| We went to the crazily decorated house (every city has one) and met the guy who owns the house- he's been doing it for 47 years. I think he's losing it though, because what the HELL are those troll heads about? |
 |
| Nate and Valentine ride the school bus through Grammy and Pa's house. Beep! |
 |
| Grammy had the great idea to drive south and visit some animals. I mean, it is Kansas and all. Nate was enamored with a donkey that he and Valentine named Cow. |
 |
| Random assortment of animals on a farm. |

I must object! There were only 3 China Moons (and 2 Scallion Pancakes). But I agree that it was a wonderful weekend that went by far too quickly!
Twas a WONDERful Turkey time!
Nate had an even funner time when Grammy and Pa took over on Kansas Time!!
