Our power went out for a bit this morning, which made me start working on Plan B for the turkey cooking. Luckily it came back on within minutes and we were all set for the rest of the day.
The festivities started at 2:00. Avery came over a litter sooner. I was not upset by this. We spent the morning joking with one another as we prepared our meal.
The turkey was divine! It was cooked perfectly and fell off the bone. It sat in a brine for 24 hours and was funny hydrated prior to cooking.
It was fun sharing a laugh with one another. We were victim to the prank war. My cousin Andy, planted an intermittent noise device in our house. Every so often it would make a crazy cat screaming noise. Maybe like once every 12 minutes. Definitely difficult to locate.
After everyone left, I went through my shoes, coat pockets, hats and gloves to find the device. I got down on the floor to look under our shoe rack and glanced up. It was stuck to the bottom of one of the shelves on the shoe rack. Ha!
I do love our silly little prank war. It is fun. I also like the idea of someone planning in advance to share a smile with us. That means a lot!
We added a few more sayings to our family quotes/memories document. Highly recommend.
It warmed my heart to see Ethan teasing Avery. He tried to trip her when she walked by him….lovingly of course. It did make me laugh. I did pretend to y’all at him using his middle name as well.
I love my family!
