The Turkey

Andy's turkey turned out surprisingly well. He was pretty proud at having provided the meat source. He also made the pumpkin pie, Beth made homemade pretzels for our meal. We had a pretty nice Thanksgiving. It was also nice that the Packers won earlier in the day.

I am currently boiling the wing bones off of Andy's turkey. Tim and Andy have some project to make a bird call with the bones. I've boiled them an hour already and the meat is not moving. This could be an all day project.

Beth and I had a blast at Shrek. We ended up eating at the Mint Cafe - somewhere we used to eat when we went shopping as kids. We also did a little shopping. The show was great. I love seeing how they do the props.

Today the kids and I are going to the Muppets Movie. It should be a fun afternoon. I checked out the Black Friday sales and there is nothing that turns my crank. Not sure what all of the fuss was about this year - especially to pepper spray the other people in line. 

Beth and I wrapped the Christmas presents that we have. Now we just have a few more things to pick up for the cousins and we are all set. I need to find a coupon on batteries - I seem to need a large amount of batteries this year.
