  2. Can't blame him. Penguins are so cute and quite entertaining. We always spend a lot of time in the penguin habitat at the Tennessee aquarium. When given dd a choice of what she wants for her birthday more than once it was to so go see the penguins.
  3. I've seen people use black trim. Depending on the red it looks interesting in a good way. Most people in our neighborhood go with cream trim.

He loves puzzles.and building toys and have given him.those over the years along with flashlight, tent, sleeping bag, Magna doodle etc. His mother is getting overwhelmed with pieces although she knows he loves puzzles, Magna tiles ,legos etc I make sure things we give come with their own storage. What can we get him this year? Tia

  9. My dil is always changing holiday plans to accommodate her family plans. I tried to suggest alternating holidays but she doesn't think that will work. The past few years I just agreed to earlier celebrations for Thanksgiving 12 is good because we prefer to eat earlier. This year my sister wants to bring my dad to visit the weekend before Thanksgiving. I was thinking to just have Thanksgiving dinner since all my adult.kids will be here to visit with their grandpa.and aunt. This will free up my dil Thanksgiving day without having to rush around. I would still have my other 2 adult.kids and dil over Thursday for a lighter meal or go out to eat.and spend time.together since there are.no in laws in town. I also want to add this is navy kids first Thanksgiving home.in 5 years so.....sigh.... not sure what I want to do or how to please everyone. Any suggestions or ideas?

  12. Are there any local eateries you can recommend for early dinner? We do like to try local bbq and pizza when we travel but are open to anything? Tia
  13. Or know someone who can recommend. Not for myself but I would like to recommend to someone who needs to talk things out and I cannot be that person because I am to close and know to much. If there is a good online therapy would be better due to transportation issues. Tia.
