Subject: Thanksgiving
To: Bar & Poppy
hi ma and pops
just wanted to thank you again for coming to Crawford for thanksgiving. I know pop that you’d wanted to spend the holiday in florida with jeb but I appreciate that you came to us. Also appreciated your views on how jeb would be handling things right now vis a vis iraq although I still think a war a little different from a hurricane. I’m sorry we couldn’t invite your pal bill to join us but he was busy with his family up in new york. Besides we would’ve had to invite hillary and chelsea and you know how they get along with laura and the girls. And for sure jenna didn’t need any extra pressure on her with all of us lookin over her boyfriend henry like he was some prize pig. I like the guy—laura and i think he’s settled her down a bit—and glad you both seemed to like him too. And ma I really wouldn’t worry too much about jenna’s weight. I know you think she’s touchy on the subject but she really was embarrassed when you warned her about seconds on the yams right in front of henry. That’s why she was so silent—she wasn’t hungover or anything. Not that she doesn’t appreciate your wisdom and advice. We all do. Barbara was just feeling sick when she got up from the table. A cold or something had been coming on all day. It had nothing to do with you telling her to giddy up on the man front or she’d be left behind jenna. Ditto for laura. No one was offended when you asked where were her jewish guests this year. She’s been stressed out lately and I think she needed to lie down for the rest of the afternoon. She hardly ever eats dessert, and you said yourself the chef didn’t make your special Texan pecan pie recipe right. Anyway it was great to see you guys and i hope we’ll all be able to do it again at xmas, if you don’t decide to go to florida.

Anyway it was great to see you guys and i hope we’ll all be able to do it again at xmas, if you don’t decide to go to florida. And hey pops, maybe Bill will be free for some of the holiday. I understand he gets kind of squirrely up in Westchester.
Best,
