Thanksgiving is a serious tradition at the Talus-Heavner household.  It is a time for friends to gather together either physically or in kindred spirit, celebrate life, eat good food, and reflect on the life we enjoy together.  And then we get three days to recover!  And it is Carrie and Matt’s anniversary (number sever in 2006).  Wahoo!  And if you have participated in the feast in person, you know about the weigh-in/weigh-out tradition.  Our winner this year went out with a net weight gain of eight pounds.  In Juneau, Carrie sells artwork at the Fall Market, and Torsten and Matt enjoy a weekend of hanging out.
