Happy Thanksgiving!













Hi to all and happy turkey day! Hope this finds you doing well and not nearly as stuffed as your turkey was today. Speaking of stuffed turkeys, you should see mom's belly! Someone in Walmart asked her if she had a basketball under her shirt the other day! Can you imagine? He must have been either crazy or in the mood for a serious brawl! We are having quite a wonderful Thanksgiving so far. We have completed round one of dinner and are anxiously awaiting our bellies to empty so that we can go for round two. In the meanwhile, maybe some pecan pie will speed up the process! Mom made two pecan pies and bought an extra frozen one just in case. Needless to say, she loves pecan pie, and I guess she was afraid of not quite getting her fill. We have some surprise Thanksgiving day guests...the Costello gang came down to spend this fine holiday with us. And boy are we thankful! We only wish Gram, Gramps and Kamrie could have made the trip with them. Luckily, Gram and Gramps had their own surprise in store last weekend. They came down on a whim on Friday night and were there when I got up Saturday morning. They are loads better than Saturday morning cartoons!! We had a ball. We hung around the house, relaxed, and played our hearts out. Talk about a great time. And now, this weekend, cousin Kent is my new plaything. I say his name about 25 times an hour; I am honestly not sure if there is anyone cooler. We have had such a great week, with the aforementioned guests (did I say how much we LOVE company), and yesterday, we had a Thanksgiving feast with Ms. Michele and all of my friends at the daycare. I ate for about 30 minutes straight! My favorite was the corn, and of course the turkey! I even said, yum, yum! That's not all, I am practically saying everything these days, whole sentences, you should see how hard I try. In fact, if you get the notion, you should come on by and hear how much I have to tell you; I promise you will be amazed. Now that we have Thanksgiving under our belt, both literally and figuratively, we are more than ready to tackle Christmas here in UB. Mom has been busy, busy, mostly with thinking about what in the world to get everyone for Christmas. She has made a few purchases, but bless her heart, she has quite a handicap going on as far as the actual shopping goes. Between that big belly and my impatience, it looks like she'll be doing most of her browsing online! We hope you are checking your list off quickly; mom says she may just give everyone a group gift in exactly their size and color, a bouncing baby boy! Sounds good to me, how about you? Well folks, I wanted to let you know I was thinking of you and thankful for you this fine turkey day. I better get going as I hear the leftovers calling. Please think of us and we will keep you posted, you know the time for Baby B's arrival is drawing very near! Take care and eat lots of turkey and dessert for me. Lots and lots of love with gravy, gobble, gobble, Cooper B.

Gobble right back to ya, Cooper B.
Love to hear you are having a great time with all of your company and Ms. Michelle's family. Just when I think your picture can't get any better they do!!!! Just love looking at them. By the way, we are quite organized up here for "THE TELEPHONE" call!!! Trying to keep the laundry done and the Christmas gifts for the UB Bryants are in the trunk already.... Now when the call comes we will probably be running into each other, you know how Gramp and I can be. It's to the count down, yeahhhhh. Have a good week and we'll see ya when the call comes in.
Love to all, Gram and Gramp B.
