Thanksgiving at the Circus..no really.

Thanksgiving with the Smith Fam part 2. Thanksgiving's didn't change too much from those first few years. Everything from the speeches, clothes, and Grandpa Smith fishing for compliments on his dressing. I forgot to add that part last time, you could guarantee Grandpa was wanting to know exactly what he thought about the stuffing. He knew it was good, he just wanted to affirmation...funny, I must have inherited that trait. I cooked a big dinner last week, and kept trying to figure out what people thought of it lol. Anyway, sad to say, Grandpa passed away in February 2003. By the time Thanksgiving rolled around I think it was a unanimous decision to do something different for Thanksgiving. So, we did what any family would do. We went to the Shriners Circus in Evansville for Thanksgiving.  Most would assume that we did something different because of my Grandpa's passing, but I think it had more to do with Grandma thinking we all belonged IN the circus. A compromise had to be made. We ate at a Golden Corral (product place!) and it was delicious according to my 8 year old memory. Afterward we went to the circus! The whole family enjoyed it! I have to admit it was where we belonged! It was a great year! :)
