“Any turkey can tango, any turkey can dance, if they only have the chance.”

These were the lyrics that replayed in my head all evening after eleven adorable children performed a talent show for us after Thanksgiving dinner.  A stark contrast to last year’s Thanksgiving dinner–gross, greasy grocery store deli cuisine eaten in a vacant mall parking lot on our way to the Tampa, FL airport–this year, we enjoyed a relaxing gathering with five other families who, like us, had decided to stay local.

Although both Bryan and I would have loved to be with our extended family on this special day, I am grateful for our faithful friends that shared their home, their time, and their yummy food with us.
