Thanksgiving

For lunch on Thanksgiving day, we ate at Uncle L.'s and Aunt K.'s

 
Cousins Tom and Chris setting up the place cards. Aunt K. had everything set up so lovely!


Uncle L. helping set out the china

It was so fun working in Aunt K.'s beautiful renovated kitchen! Uncle L. and Aunt K. renovated almost the whole kitchen by themselves, and it turned out so lovely.


"...so I saw this shirt and thought 'that's such an awesome design right there' and I just had to buy it..." :D


"Have a taste, Mom" (Meg and Katie: yes, that is wassail! Yummy!)


Uncle L. carving the turkey


Visiting amongst family


Pie cutting with my lovely Great Aunts

Now on to dinner....we headed over to Grandma R.'s......

The monster oven mitts! It is so neat watching Daddy have fun with his nieces and nephews.

Eden loves her Aunt and Uncle!


Family


Uncle Rich and Aunt Beth


Maddy and Bryce


Grandma always has a towel over her shoulder when in the kitchen...and her granddaughters have adopted the habit as well!


FOOD


Eden kept saying that she wanted "pie" and was all excited about it...so we asked if she wanted pumpkin or cherry pie (pointing them out to her). She said "no", and kept insisting she wanted pie. Finally she pointed to the ReddiWhip and said "I want pie!"...she didn't want pie; she wanted ReddiWhip! :)

Domino time!


Can you tell who won? :)

  3. I like the added commentary to Christopher and I's picture. Very funny. =]
    (Thanks for the compliment on the beard, it mostly came about with laziness and "No Shave Novemember"...)

    Glad you like the commentary. :D
    We know someone else that did "No Shave November"...only he did it last year. Before our friend did it we had never heard if it before! :)
