It was a traditional Detroit Thanksgiving for us. First James watched the parade and enjoyed it, later Dad watched the Lions lose (again) on Thanksgiving (this time in overtime, an agonizing defeat). The meal Mom cooked was delicious and everyone gobbled their share of turkey, stuffing, and deviled eggs. Later we pulled out the Christmas decorations (at James request) and got to work on setting up Christmas inside and outside.

The highlight for James was setting up his Christmas countdown ornament which is on its third year. Mary and James will add more bulbs and ornaments later in the week and we will be all set for Christmas 2012 (assuming the Mayans are wrong).

The small collection of pictures we have here are of James and his Mom making devil eggs for our Thanksgiving feast!
