Thanksgiving

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Ours was delicious as always and fun.

all the grandkids

We had the priviledge of hosting the festivities for D's family this year. His parents moved and there current place would be a bit cramped if we all showed up so we offered to let them use our house. I mean D's mom is an amazing cook and thanksgiving dinner would just not be the same if I were making it. Not that I couldn't attempt but seeing her in action Thursday was enough to make me tired. Its a ton of work to pull off that meal and make it oh so tasty.

Grandma put the bird in a bit after 5 am...Yep. Crazy. And I was still sleeping in the room next door as they spent the night so she could put it in bright and early.

Doesn't it look amazing.

Ells asked where the head was so that we left Grandma to handle that one.

Everyone started arriving late morning. We had fun playing cards, games, watching movies, relaxing, going for a walk, taking naps, and just enjoying each other's company.

after turkey rest - i believe d napped though (must me the comfort of your home)

We are so so thankful for our families. We are blessed to call them ours. They would do anything and everything for us and not everyone is fortunate to have that!

Our turkey craft one day

We also attempted a gingerbread house like last year. For some reason it just didn't want to stay together. We even broke out the hot glue but no such luck. We did decorate some little christmas trees (sugar cones) though.

Hope you had as great of a Thanksgiving as we did.

Just a silly one of all the grandkids
