Out of the cuckoo's nest

The last bird flew the coop this morning, so I'm trying to get back to "normal," whatever that is. It was great having all four kids around for Thanksgiving week. It's always a little hectic, keeping arrival and departure times straight. Our son-in-law wanted to do the turkey this year, so I reluctantly agreed. (Ha!) I have always done the turkey and it was really nice to finally turn it over to the next generation. Dinner at our daughter's was a delight. Our granddaughter enjoys having three uncles to spoil her. She beat the pants off everybody in her card-matching game. They started out thinking they would let her win and ended up getting tromped.
