It would be my first Thanksgiving since my father moved to heaven, and it would also be my first Thanksgiving being away from my family.

We’d become____ with Dubya and his wife, as we ate at Dubya’s twice a week; however, I didn’t think we were close enough to ____ Thanksgiving dinner with his family. I was sure he was ____ But as we headed toward the door, Dubya handed Jeff a note with directions to their house and their phone number. “You’re ____ ?” I asked “Of course,” he said.
