Hi everyone!

Just wanting to wish everyone a Very Happy & Safe Thanksgiving. Safe journey to you or your family if you are meeting up.

Hope everyone had a lovely holiday yesterday. We went to our favorite Mexican restaurant, which we've been doing for Thanksgiving for many years. The upside was that my Dad decided to go this year (he usually chooses to stay home and watch football.) The downside was that the restaurant didn't put out their big wooden turkey in the entryway. We've had my daughter take a photo with that turkey since she was 6 weeks old! It was the end of an era.

But the food was great and we all had fun. Hope that all of your Thanksgivings were just as ice...and if you're not in the U.S., I hope you had a great Thursday!

What is the tradition behind this day?
