OUr FiRsT ThAnKsgiViNg At hOmE

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year!!

We were very excited
to have all of Nate's family come
to our home and celebrate it with us!!

We had a fun-filled week of
shopping, golfing, resting,
eating, running,
cooking,
watching lots of football,
going to the movie "Tangled",
playing games and shopping some more.

This year it was mine and Nate's turn
to plan Thanksgiving,
so needless to say,
I was a bit stressed and overwhelmed...
but we couldn't have asked it to turn
out any better than it did.

I was in charge of the Turkey this year
so with a lot of help from my mother-in-law
and some words of advice from my mom,
my first turkey turned out pretty darn good!!

We had a splendid feast
of Turkey, gravy, rolls, stuffing,
mashed potato's, cranberry sauce,
green bean casserole,
corn, strawberry jam,
pomegranate salad, green salad
and a variety of scrumptious pies
( apple, chocolate oreo, razzleberry,
banana cream, pumpkin and a red velvet cake).






The table was decorated with name tags for all
placed on the front of a pine cone
(courteous of Nate and Moses)
while they were golfing
they gathered some cones for me.



Little Kru man had a yummy first feast as well
of baby food
(sweet potato's, applesauce,
mashed potato's and gravy from my plate).




We loved having everyone here with us this year.
We are so THANKFUL
for each of you and your love, support,
willingness to help, kindness and generosity...
you are all amazing and we love you very much!!



Thank you for making
Thanksgiving at our home so SPECIAL!!
