EARLY THANKSGIVING
We had our U.S. Thanksgiving celebration yesterday. Plans turned out to be complicated for the traditional turkey dinner day so we went ahead and had ours early.
There were 10 of us eating ourselves silly and having loads of good fun and conversation.
One of the best things was raking our leaves into a huge pile and jumping in them. Being in Northern California and not having real seasons like those on the East Coast made this extra special for us. Even Snicker got into the act trying to bury her bone in the leaf pile.

Happy week to yo and your family!
I am going again to see Melli next weekend and bigger grandchildren too.
I'm very glad to see you can play in the leaves in California! It looks like a great family time, which is what this holiday is good for. I still think it's the one holiday we have that remains true to its call.
Love the smiles!!
Happy Thanksgiving.

Wonderful fun shot! Nothing wrong with celebrating early!
Happy Thanksgiving!
appy thanksgiving/leaf jumping day!
That looks like fun!
Whenever I rake the leaves I can't resist kicking my way through the pile and having a jump about while no one is looking.
I haven't jumped into a pile of leaves since my guys were little. It's too late for that here, this year, but maybe I'll plan on a snow angel or two. Wonderful shot - full of fun.
Lovely action shot! The colors are beautiful and the fun is evident:) I'm glad you had such a wonderful family time..that means everything...
I'm glad that you had a good Thanksgiving..and I have such fond memories of the kids and leaf piles...
Oh what fun!! So glad that you could spend it with your family Sue...even if it was early!
