Laughter and a show…talent, TBD:)

Compost truck at the view spot at sunset, trifecta!

Decorating the tree only took three days…legendary lights that didn’t light, a power outage, and two trips to the drug store for more:)

Twenty minutes of darkness, but long enough to build a fireplace fire and find seemingly all of our battery operated lights!

First appointment of the day to avoid the crowds and we drove away with a bold and beautiful Blue Noble Fir that just fits in the living room.

Roar dinosaur, roar dinosaur! How lovely are your golashes.

Thank goodness for this flexible crew:) Let’s see if we can keep this tree standing for a month!

No, we’re not filming a sitcom:) But we did decorate real live tree toppers with marshmallow garlands and s’mores ornaments so that Meryl’s and Holmes’ shared tree matches Grandpa’s!

Party under the big top! Partitioned by masks, plexiglass, and a time zone:)

We’re not traditionally with Lola and Tito on Thanksgiving, so it was nice to share the holiday (and food) with them this year!

Yes! Meryl and I raced to deliver Baba’s stuffing to Grandpa just before our Lawer family Zoom, and when we arrived home I couldn’t resist agreeing to run to the view spot with her for a Thanksgiving sunset glimpse:)
