My mom lays out a nice table.

My brother brought his new cat, Simone. She's meeting Grandma for the first time.

Izzy wasn't allowed inside while the cat was in Grandma's arms. Don was nice enough to keep her company outside.

Simone was a little skittish with Izzy right outside...

but pretty soon she calmed down.

This is what I get to sit next to at the Thanksgiving table.

A face only a mother could love.

Dreamy...

I was coming from the left. I skidded through the stop sign as I desperately tried to turn towards the camera. I didn't make the turn and I hit the curb. You can see my erratic tracks in the snow as I pulled away from the curb.
