We kept it pretty simple and yummy.
Greg made the turkey in our countertop turkey roaster, it's great because it frees up the oven! We have it sitting here at Yoda's remote learning desk. Greg did a fresh, local, fancy turkey, with a wet brine. I made or assisted making the sides, we split the work on the gravy and I bought the rolls. At the last minute Greg saw the white potatoes that I bought on a whim and he went for it.
The kiddos have received many Lego sets over the years and each child plays with them so differently!
Parker liked the mini-figures, Mimi prefers to have a set to put together, leave it alone or take it apart and put it together again, but Yoda is crazy-town, he is constantly taking pieces from different sets and taking them all over the house. After a while I stopped cleaning them up and just let him go nuts without me chasing after him.
BUT since 2020 has been a total pain and we are inside so much, Mimi would like different sets to work on. Getting new sets is out of the question, so I decided that I would recreate a few sets for her to keep in her room, untouched by her little brother.
This is just a taste of what we've been doing...
And here's some of our masks... I like our funny little clothes line to air-dry them sometimes. I've made a bunch, and bought a few. None feel perfect, but some are better than others.
This was a total impulse buy.
But I thought we had bad weather moving in, so we'd need something to do to stop from going crazy. But... then it's been amazing outside, so I thought this would never get finished. But... it was one of the quickest puzzles yet! And so funny to look up old soda commercials on the internet.

I handed out candy dressed as Ruth Bader Ginsburg. I set up a slide on top of a table, I'd grab some candy with tongs and send the candy down the slide. I wish I had taken a picture.
