We hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. This year was a little bit different for us. We went out to dinner instead of at home...no pie baking, roll making, turkey baking, mashed potato smashing, sweet potato baking, dish washing extravaganza! There were just 11 of us this year for the Hislop gathering, so Chris talked his dad into going out...I'm not sure if we'll do it again, but it was something new. Another 'different' aspect of 'the-going-out-for-dinner-on-Thanksgiving' experience is where we went. We went to Sizzler. They had a turkey platter dinner that we all had except for Chris--he had steak and shrimp. It was fun but interesting.
After dinner, Chris, Maggie, Cooper, Allie, and I went to the cheap theater to the movie "Astro Boy." Another interesting experience on Thanksgiving Day. I didn't like it much and neither did Maggie, but the rest thought it was okay.
We did end the day by going back to Grandma and Grandpa Hislops and hanging out with them. It was a nice, relaxing day.
