Thanksgiving '08


Thanksgiving '08. All and all it was a very nice and relaxing day. There was a turkey we enjoyed, our belts got a little tighter and several projects completed. Kate greeted us this morning with a Thanksgiving card. She noted that there was a girl turkey and a boy turkey and bread and pie. What else can we really ask for?

Anna and I made Monkey Bread Minis this morning for breakfast. She will pass up a good show on t.v. to help mommy in the kitchen any time. She loves to cook and bake.

Our masterpieces looked like this when they were done and not many of them were left. I think Kate ate three...
There was some time for serious board games too. Anna and daddy played Dora Chutes and Ladders (mommy and Kate played Guess Who and Old Maid).
Finally Thanksgiving dinner...turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy (Kate's favorite), green bean bundles (mommy's version of green bean casserole & daddy's favorite), cranberry spritzer and cherry pie and ice cream for dessert (in memory of Grandpa Al). Grandma Joyce chose to say grace and everything was quaint and sweet.
Now...onto Christmas decorating first thing tomorrow morning!
