Thanksgiving Day

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Thank you to Rick and Heidi for opening your home to us. Even though we don't get to go "home" for Thanksgiving, we have a great time with the family we have here. Scott's older sister and her family live just 15 minutes away, and his little brother and family live just a few minutes away. It has been a lot of fun spending time with them. Yesterday we all joined at Scott's sister's house for a wonderful meal and then some relaxing, and then we went to Scott's little brother's house(who just got an enormous TV) and watched the Polar Express. That was fun on such a big screen and everyone else hadn't seen it in a long time so they really enjoyed it too.

Here we are just starting our feast. You can see there was another table where Sydney sat and all our nephews.

Sydney talking to me about the camera. My kids would only eat the rolls. Go figure.
I had some requests for the recipe of the stuffing I made. I wish I could take credit for it's awesomeness but that goes to someone on all recipes. I guess I can take credit for the fact that I went WAY outside what I am normally comfortable with(fruit in stuffing?) but it had the most and best reviews so I thought I'd give it a shot. And it was SO good! Anyway, here is the link.


I just really like the way rustic things look when covered in snow, so I had fun taking pictures of these pots for a minute. Not too long because it was FREEZING!!!!

I love Thanksgiving, but what I love even more is that when it's over it's Christmas time!! And tomorrow we're going out to chop down our tree in the forest!! Yay!
