All the holiday guests are gone and safely home, but are surely missed. Mike and family visited with Alesa's youngest sister (Michelle) and her family in the Raleigh area for the night before continuing home today. Alesa and Craig played pickleball yesterday morning before they left and we spent the rest of the day watching college football and 'disposing' of Thanksgiving leftovers. I also replaced the two batteries in the truck as I've been having to charge them to start the truck if they sit for more than a day. We have be picking up and delivering Christmas gifts for the Lake Hills special needs school so we want "Santa's sleigh'" to be reliable. Today was a warm, sunny day and we golfed this morning and relaxed this afternoon. Aninika had done a very nice acrylic painting of a bird in flight for us. We have framed it and it is in the living room among the paintings her father has done for us.
