Today is a national holiday in the US with everyone celebrating Thanksgiving. Tradition has it that the very early settlers held a community thanksgiving meal after the harvest and invited the Native Americans as thanks for their help with getting those settlers established in homes and planting vegetables to sustain the community. Most people are cooking turkeys with all the traditional side dishes - cranberries, sweet potatoes, green beans, stuffing and of course, pumpkin pie.
Thank you to this community who help us all care for and enjoy our budgies! Have a great day.

criswell I will be having a nice calm day without all the cooking. Two friends and I will go to a local restaurant for the traditional meal and then come back to my house and enjoy visiting together and watching Buddy and Tweetie Pie playing. We are also doubly thankful because the Covid cases here are less than 2% but we still have many restrictions. My brother and sister-in-law will be driving here from San Jose in northern California for a long weekend.

I've had a good visit with my brother and sister-in-law. They had never met Tweetie Pie and Buddy and think they are very cute. The boys came out of their cage and flew around. They quickly became used to my brother and sister-in-law. Buddy was in prime form and came onto my hand so they got to see him kissing my nose and chewing my reading glasses frames. Before I got them, my brother and sister-in-law agreed to take them if the budgies out lived me. They are so cute that they've no problem taking them.

I’m so glad you had a really lovely weekend tweetiepiesmom. It’s such a worry to ensure our beloved animal family will be looked after should, and inevitably, when anything happens isn’t it, and therefore such a relief when you know there is. Your boys are so endearing I’m not surprised your brother and his wife were taken with them.
