Daddy here. Thanksgiving time at the Mansfield house means dusting off the book 'Thanksgiving at the Tappletons'. That has to be one of my favorite books to read. We all have so much fun reading it together. No one else is allowed to say Tapplestons or they face the penalty of a tickle! This year we had an unexpected surprise in that our water heater blow up! Luckily, Papa was around to save the day. So, on Thanksgiving morning Mama took you guys to the Turkey Trot and Papa and I put in a brand new water heater. Later that day, we made our annual trip to Grammie and Papa's for dinner. This year, Seth and Jula decided to raise their own bird. Not knowing how this would turn out, Grammie also prepared a bird. Grammie made a 26 pound turkey. If you don't know, that's pretty good size. Seth and Jula's bird came in at a whopping 40 pounds! Papa said it barely fit in the oven. Seth dared Al to eat a drumstick for dinner, which he did. And nothing else!
After dinner, we fell asleep on the couch watching the Forty Niner game. Which I'm glad we did since they got killed by Seattle. We took a bunch of leftovers home and went home to sleep, never to eat again.
