Enjoy!
Did you hear about the cranberries that turned red because they saw the turkey dressing?
How many bakers does it take to make a pie? 3.14.
If turkeys had a prom would it be called the Butterball?
Would you call an especially attractive pilgrim a puri-ten?
Do sweet potatoes wear their yammies to bed?
Is it true that turkeys gobble because they never learned table manners?
Did you know that little pumpkins cross the road with the help of a crossing gourd?
Did you know that the preferred drinking glass for a turkey is a goblet?
Did you hear about the turkey that wanted to play baseball so that he could cover first baste?
If you are having a Friendsgiving would you invite a group of pal-grims?
Did you hear about the green beans that tried out to be in the Thanksgiving play? They landed the casse-role.
Last Thanksgiving a policeman pulled me over on my way home for exceeding the feed limit.
My family told me to stop telling Thanksgiving jokes, but I said I couldn’t quit cold turkey.
THOUGHT DOR THE WEEK
“When upon life’s billows you are tempest-tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.”
~ Johnson Oatman, Jr.

Leonard's Lines 
Leonard, Bobby wanted me to send you a msg for him. He says thank you for your weekly jokes.
Bobby was diagnosed with dementia about two years ago. He still manages quite well most days. There were 5 children in his immediate family & all have passed with the disease. He is the last one. We started going to a Neurologist about ten years ago knowing the probability was high that he would be affected.
Happy Thanksgiving to you, Ann, your boys & families.

Fay – good to hear from you. Will keep you and Bobby in our prayers. Ann and I have very fond memories of our time at Smoke Rise and your hospitality to us when we first arrived. We had three boys, two daughters-in-law and 8 grand children ( our youngest has remained unattached) for Thanksgiving dinner this past Saturday and enjoyed the noise and chaos. Will have Thanksgiving with my sister, her husband and my Mom who will be 97 in just a few weeks. Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving.
