Thanksgiving. For me at least. A boatload of good food that I probably didn't do a thing to help with, although I guess I might have to go pick up the pies. My wife already gets stressed out with 2 or 3 other women in the kitchen with her. That's my story anyhow.
We will have way too much food and way too many side dishes but I have learned to keep my mouth shut. As long as there is white meat turkey, dressing, gravy, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, rolls, and pumpkin pie with whipped cream, it'll be great. Plus a bunch of family I seldom see so that's good too. And football.

I had probably a dozen or so groups of kids come by this year -- that's twice as many as we had last year. And the neighborhoods around us (ours too as a matter of fact) did more decorating -- one house even had a walk-thru haunted house set up in their half-circle driveway. It was TOO stinking cute! -- this year. I hope I feel good enough to decorate next year. I LOVE sitting out front (weather permitting) and visiting with the kids as they go up and down the street.
