COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 150 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 125 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 64 DAYS

Happy Next to Last Day of June! It's a Milestone Monday! That has a nice ring to it doesn't it? Which milestone? Well let's see if we can figure out from the counts. We have 150 days left until Thanksgiving; 125 days left until November; and 64 days left until The Bers. Can you see the milestone? Yes indeed it is the 150 day marker to Thanksgiving. Crazy awesome isn't it? I know that you're all excited like I am. Happy 150! Now we won't be closer to the 2s or 3s in any count ever again in this thread. That make you happy? It sure makes me happy. And tomorrow? We say farewell to June so that will be another milestone as we end the 7th month since November. Been a heck of a ride. It will continue to be. Have a great Next to Last Day of June!

COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 149 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 124 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 63 DAYS

Happy Farewell to June! Oh yeah today ends the month and that means we've reached the milestone of the end of June! And we also are reaching the end of the 1st half of the year. And when you look at the 2nd half of the year? It's got 90% of what we love in it. Let's look at our counts. We have 149 days till Thanksgiving, 124 days till November and 63 days till The Bers. Woohoo on the last day of June as we celebrate with this milestone saying farewell to the 7th month since November. And tomorrow we reach ANOTHER milestone as we welcome in July. And that folks really is when things get serious. 2 full summer months ahead before The Bers begin. Let that sink in. Only 2 full months. We better enjoy it. Have a great Farewell to June!

I can taste homemade baked mac and cheese already.

Has anyone checked the price of whole turkeys lately?
I was just wondering if they'll be a lot more expensive this year.

COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 148 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 123 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 62 DAYS

Happy July Arrives! It is a new month. And what does that mean? It means we have reached a MILESTONE of course. That milestone is arriving to the 8th (yes I said 8th) month since November. A new month begins. And a new half of the year begins. And these counts continue into the 2nd half of the year: 148 days till Thanksgiving, 123 days till November, and 62 days till The Bers. 3 days in a row with milestones has been fun. What's next you ask? Tomorrow be here because I will have a Thanksgiving poll for all of you. We'll also give you the weekly count to Thanksgiving. And beyond that in 12 days we will reach the 50 day marker to The Bers. That's our next milestone and it happens on July 13th. Have a great July Arrives!

COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 147 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 122 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 61 DAYS

Happy Closer to Independence Day! Oh wow the BIG holiday weekend is coming. And it's Thursday which means our weekly count today also. Let's move on to the counts before we get to the poll. 147 days remain till Thanksgiving. 122 days are left until November. 61 days to go until The Bers. In 11 days on the 13th we'll hit the 50 day marker to The Bers. The Final 50. Wow. Weekly count to Thanksgiving is at 21 weeks. Where have the 20s gone? Well they are going, going, going, gone soon. 1 more to go into the 20s. Now it's time for a poll and involves Thanksgiving Cartoons.
What's your favorite Thanksgiving Cartoon?
A.) Garfield's Thanksgiving
B.) Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving
C.) The Simpson's Thanksgiving
D.) Other (please tell us which is if none of the above)
My answer is A. It's close because I love B and C is a good one too (it's where Bart "ruins" Thanksgiving from the early seasons if you want to google it). And I'm always interested in D...if anyone has ones that they watch that maybe we should know more about. Which is your favorite?
Have a great Closer to Independence Day!

SnowflakeMom · Jul 2, 2020

I would have to say A or B...prob Charlie Brown a bit more. I have never seen the Simpson's Thanksgiving.

Rich · Jul 2, 2020

B is my all time favorite Thanksgiving cartoon. Nothing else comes close for me. Just hearing the music from the cartoon brings back childhood memories and feelings. Can't wait to watch it again in November.

We had a big family dinner last night to celebrate my Father-In-Law's birthday. It had a real fall / thanksgiving vibe to it! I'm not sure if it was just because of how rare family dinners have became since the pandemic happened, but either way it really felt great and for those few hours, really had that big-time holiday feel to it!

B all the way for me, although A is also a personal favorite. I just have so much nostalgia associated with B, though. I love everything Charlie Brown and Peanuts and even listen to the soundtracks for the TV specials throughout the year.

B for me! All of the Peanuts Holiday specials are highlights of my holiday season. I try my best to be home and to watch them live. For the last few years I have been making treat bags for the little ones in my life to enjoy while watching one of the specials. The Thanksgiving one had root beer, pretzel sticks, jelly beans, and popcorn with a tag that told them when to tune in.

I love the treat bag idea. That is awesome!
