Thanksgiving 2009

We had a beautiful Thanksgiving dinner at our house this year. We had Luke's mom and dad and brother Christopher over. As well as his Grandma and Grandpa, and our friend Suzanne. It was the perfect amount of people, and oh did we ever have FOOD! :) We could have served an army and then some! It was our first time hosting a big dinner party like that, especially something like Thanksgiving, but I think pretty much everything went off without a hitch! Oh, there was one thing....I had completely forgotten to make the stuffing/dressing and didn't even realize it until we sat down to eat and someone asked to pass it....and I realized I had none made!! But it was all fixed very easily...I had the quick stuff....it only took a few minutes! Crisis averted :)

Some of our family mingling in the living room, eating some snacks before dinner was served!

Luke was the master Turkey Chef - he did a great job! It was super moist and tender! It was our first time doing a big turkey like that, but I think it all turned out really well...I was proud of his skills! :)

This is everyone! We were so blessed to be surrounded by family that day - it was a real treat!
