Traveling along with Nicki and Geoff from LA was Keswick, the leisure gnome. Keswick is a bit of a troublemaker and always seems to end up posing for pictures in interesting locations. Yesterday, we found him in the pumpkin cupcakes, and in the bowl of clementines. (He also managed to score a pic sitting on his Auntie Em’s big belly, but the evidence of that was destroyed.)
After a wonderful Thanksgiving meal that stretched into hours of game-playing (and yes, Geoff did beat a team of 6 of us at Trivial Pursuit, although to be fair, we had accumulated 4 pie pieces at the time of his victory), we discovered that this morning was CHRISTMAS!! Since this is the first year in who knows how many that we will not all be together at some point over the holidays, my parents (shown below holding the 2 turkeys we didn’t eat yesterday) brought Christmas to us in the form of stockings. So we put on some Christmas tunes and pretended it was yuletide. As you can see, Seth is very excited about Baboo’s future costume opportunities– how could we resist buying them when they’d been marked down to $6!!!??
What a naughty Keswick. His shenanigans are getting out of hand. We are quite certain he ate all of Eric’s smoked turkey long before he could have leftovers! I seem to also be missing some green pills. Be sure to let G & Nic to watch for twitching. (I like the sound of G & Nic, you know my gangsta ways). Anyhoo, for those of you blogites, Thanksgiving with the Kenton-Moores cannot be beat: great food, great people and such memories to cherish. Merci!
