Turkey week in Ukiah 11-26-07

Here almost a week already! I just can’t keep up right now! We got in at the Ukiah Fairgrounds last Tuesday. On Wednesday we did our Christmas shopping for Andrea’s family so we can get it all wrapped and leave it here and not have to ship anything. We also shopped for Ian’s birthday which is next month. Wednesday evening Andrea had us down to her place because she baked a cake for Larry’s 50th birthday.

We had a great Thanksgiving dinner at Andrea’s. We were moving in slow motion and didn’t get to her place until after 10 a.m. and by then she had managed the turkey all by herself! Andrea cooked us a fabulous dinner, we spent the whole day grazing…first on snacks and then on the turkey. Will started carving the turkey, but then he had to run down to his mother’s place to pick up the deviled eggs she made just for him at his request.

Friday we spent doing more grazing down at Andrea’s, Saturday we visited friends (Ian was kicking back and watching cartoons at our friend’s gorgeous home) and spent the night with our brother-in-law and nephews in Martinez. We had fun catching up with them and went out to breakfast; I had the best Garden Omelet I have ever had.

Today we did a little more shopping and then spent the afternoon and evening with Ian.

Tomorrow we load our storage unit up into a U-haul, Wednesday we drive it the 340 miles and 8 hours up to Fallon (takes that long towing) and unload it, Thursday we have a delivery and appointment at the house and Friday we drive back to Ukiah. We’ll probably not have internet while we are in Fallon this trip because our “home” will be left behind in Ukiah.

Michelle’s been without a computer the last several weeks and she just got her new computer today and sent these pictures of Seth. What a handsome boy! He was Buzz Lightyear for Halloween and he came home as an Indian before Thanksgiving!
