Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving this year was very quiet and different from past years. We decided not to travel anywhere, as we have for the past several years, and it ended up being just our little family together. We missed seeing all the extended family, but I enjoyed just relaxing a bit at home and keeping things relatively simple (although it also meant I had to do ALL the cooking!).

Just a couple of explanations about the pictures. Hannah insisted that she have a complete drumstick -- bone and all -- for her portion of the turkey. And Courtney was throwing a fit because I didn't make the kind of mashed potatoes she requested (I tried a garlic mashed potato recipe, which she ended up liking after all).




There is much to be thankful for!
