Over the River

Over the river and thru the wood,

To grandmother's house we go;
The horse knows the way
To carry the sleigh,
Thru the white and drifted snow, oh!
Over the river and thru the wood,
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes,
And bites the nose,
As over the ground we go.

Over the river and thru the wood,
To have a first-rate play;
Oh, hear the bell ring,
"Ting-a-ling-ling!"
Hurrah for Thanksgiving Day-ay!
Over the river and thru the wood,
Trot fast my dapple gray!
Spring over the ground,
Like a hunting hound!
For this is Thanksgiving Day.

It may not be to my grandmother's,

and it may not be by sleigh nor through the snow, 

but we will be going over some rivers

 to get to my mother's house to celebrate Thanksgiving.

I probably won't be posting much during the next week, but don't fret...
I'll be checking in and dropping comments here and there for all of you!

To all by blog buddies.....

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
even for those of you who don't actually celebrate this American holiday,
 I am thankful to have you as my blog friends!
