Well Thanksgiving weekend was quite eventful and emotional for me at the same time. Not because it was a holiday and I was not home, but because someone tried to pick pocket me on the train to Rob's parents' house. Luckily I had nothing in my pockets that I know of and all my belongings were in my zipped up purse specifically for that reason. You prepare yourself for times like these, but you never really think it will happen to you. Though it is a petty crime that does not physically harm you in any way, it still leaves you feeling violated and so, so small and helpless. So DON'T FALL ASLEEP ON PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION!!!!! As for me, I won't be taking that train anymore.
Okay on a better note.....
Thanksgiving was full of wonderful food, family, friends and all together good times. Rob's parents fixed a lovely meal with more food than you can imagine. We visited with family and listened to Christmas music (my favorite). I just can't get enough. I got to meet the newest member of the Kenney family, Chloe, Michelle's new pup. (pictures further down) She is quite the snuggler and I had a good time stuffing her between the couch cushions to get funny pictures. We just never grow up do we?
Since I had to work the day after Thanksgiving, lovely Rob drove us back to the city at 10:30 at night. Not a bad ride and you don't have to watch your pockets. Well I stayed in the city and my cousin, Carrie (who also lives here) had my aunt and uncle come visit. We had a great dinner down in Little Italy. It had been forever since seeing Aunt Carol and Uncle Mike, so it was great catching up with them.
