Almost here...it's been way too long.

Sunset in The Rio Grande Valley, South Texas


Though October has just started I am anxious for November. This Turkey Day I get to go see my family. Though I saw them a lot this summer this Thanksgiving has a lot of significance for me, Nick gets to come with us. This November will be two years since he's had a vacation, two years since the big "Lay Off".  When he goes down there I get the sense that he just unwinds and gets to relax. He's super good friends with my brother in law, Fred. My sister and I are already know Nick will most likely not come out of her house (she lives right next door) so our master plan is if it gets too late he can stay and she'll stay with me at mom's we'll do our own thing....sleep! Not to mention we'll hope the kids will stay over there too...hee hee.
We can relax with a glass of wine, a mixed drink, a shot okay just anything alcoholic period and enjoy the silence.
Oh Valley Thanksgiving, I can hardly wait! In the mean time I will mentally prepare for all the emotional, physical and yummy goodness we four will encounter while there. Did I mention mom and dad live in the country? There are so many stars to see, critters to hear, beautiful evening walks through a crisp breeze and that mom makes everything from SCRATCH for Turkey Day?  Soooo yummy sooo good wish it was already Turkey time.
