Sneaky

This year Thanksgiving really snuck on me. I didn't realize that it was this week until Saturday. We'll be going to Liz's cousin Andrew's house again because we aren't supposed to travel even though this is an OC year. It'll be a blast as usual- we're up to something like 30 people now and growing....

At our place last Saturday, Liz did a great job with the roast and mashed potatoes, and we had 13 people seated for dinner- I think that was a record for us! And the table Liz set was beautiful.

All this happened while I was playing golf at San Geronimo with Ivan, Karl, and Steve. A beautiful day in Marin.

Then after everyone left on Saturday, we watched the Big Game on DVR. Wow what a game!!! the only thing better than beating stanfurd is coming from behind to upset them and crush their Rose Bowl hopes in their own stadium. That's going to sting for a while.

Then Sunday was the Birthing Class at the hospital. We learned a lot, though it could have been a little shorter (9am-4pm). My favorite part was the tour of the labor and delivery center. They have private delivery rooms where they have all kinds of equipment and aids. The nurse said that they deliver something like 650 babies a month! The other important part we learned was when to go the hospital- evidently they don't want us going too early. We'll probably stop for a burrito on the way.

And tonight Liz finished all the Thank You cards from all five showers- easily over 100 cards!
