ThanksGiving-the day gluttony becomes a patriotic duty

Ahhhh what could ever really be wrong with eating untill you have to :

#1:Un-do your belt, button, and zipper

#2: Consume as many calories in one day than you do in any given week

#3: Eat so much that your stomach expands to the point of cutting off your diafram making it next to impossible to breath correctly.
Either you experienced ,two, or all of thee above( like i did) Take heart in knowing that every one else probubly did too :)

Ever since Ryanne's very first thanksgiving ( and years befor) my mom has had this putrid 70'sish orange table-cloth ( its really a re-converted bed sheet...but anyways)that she lays out with a black sharpie marker ( lets hope its been placed far from the "kiddie-tabel"). Every person that has eaten Thanksgiving with my family has writen something, signed, drew, traced and all in all tag-ed-there-mark on this family tradition. I found many years of "Ryanne was here" type graffiti...but ialso found this one-

Thru this year, with all the things i have to whine about, be thankful for, cry over,laugh thru, and the things still left floating around that i can scratch my head over, the silver linnings i have had to find, the friends and family i have found, and lost...in the end Thanksgiving had some very important things...Olives and deviled eggs ( You thought i was going to get mushy on ya did you! ...YOU DID!!)
