Thanksgiving

Well, Thanksgiving is over and it was a GREAT holiday! We have 23 adults, 3 children, and one baby in our house for the past 2 days. LOVED IT! Here's a round-up of what we had:


Smoked turkey














Cornbread dressing














Green beans and mushrooms














Sweet potato casserole and broccoli casserole














Squash casserole














Salad, cranberry salad, and rolls. Desserts included pecan pie, chocolate chip pound cake, and blueberry cobbler. Recipes for some of these will come later, but for now just enjoy the eye candy!

  10. Erika - The recipes are coming!!!

    Stacy - We had a great time. I love little kids and the new baby was such a joy.

    VC - I LOVE smoked turkey. Usually we have baked and smoked but the oven couldn't be tied up by turkey so we smoked a whole turkey and a breast. I did not miss the baked one AT ALL!!! This means that I have to get a smoker when I have my own house...that may be YEARS away! :-)
