The Holidays Approach, Part 1

Next Thursday is Thanksgiving. I’ll send my Newsletter out on Tuesday or Wednesday. Figure everyone will be too busy eating, watching football, chatting with family and friends to bother checking out regular blog or Newsletter on my regular day.

Thanksgiving is “My” holiday in our family. My older daughter does Christmas, and my younger daughter does Easter. Everyone gets a chance to play host and no one gets imposed on to “always” have the family.

We are having a gorgeous Fall.

The Wichita Falls West family can’t come this year, and we will really miss them. But you have to share with others. 😊 Regardless, one of the granddaughters will insist we play Word Salad even though we won’t have as many people. Last summer when she was here a lot, she insisted that just the two of us play it. So, I’m sure that will be on the menu again this year.

Word Salad is a version of Charades, but it’s played in three rounds. The first round, you can use all the words you can find to get across the words/phrases you draw. The second round you can only use one word. The last round you act out with no words. A great deal of laughter ensues.

Are there games or special activities that your family do every year at this time?

We’ll talk food in my Newsletter and about the last book signing.

In the meantime, don’t forget to check out NN Light’s Snuggle Up with These Books blog with two of my books. Great #Giveaway opportunities!! Check out other authors, too. Great way to find Christmas gifts. If you want to give any of my books just email me or check them out on Amazon. Here are the two links.
