The nieces and nephews. We had them trapped behind the table and I was determined to get a good photograph of all of them.
Second try.
Not too bad. I don't recall what caught their attention.

I bought a turkey and groceries for mashed potatoes and stuffing this morning, to cook for us on Thursday for a second Thanksgiving celebration.
And my big excitement, tomorrow I'm going to see Porgy and Bess at the Lyric Opera.

I'm going to a matinee performance and will be sitting way up high. I'll let you know all about it next week.
Best wishes for a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday weekend if you're in the U.S. It's my favorite holiday, a gathering of family and friends and taking time to pause and reflect on all that we have to be thankful for.
