Thanksgiving Feast

We had a great thanksgiving. We were glad because Karen flew out to help us with Sean so we got to have her there with us. We decided to stay home this year and just have a relaxing day. we invited our neighbors over and we all did our own cooking for the first time, and it all turned out really good! Our oven was really old and apparently didn't work right so we ended up eating a lot later than we had planned. But because of how slow cooked the turkey was it actually turned out to taste amazing. I was so proud of the apple pie I made without any help from my mom!!

Alyssa's celebrated Thanksgiving at school and they made these Indian costumes to wear. She loved wearing it around the house all day.


It was a very relaxing day for all of us. It was nice to have a low key holiday that ended with yummy food.

This is a picture of the first pie I ever attempted to make on my own.
I felt like I did a pretty good job, and it tasted really good too!

Finally ready to eat. We were glad that we got to have our friends Jeremy and Jessica come down to celebrate with us.

Sean was a good boy and slept through dinner, so we were able to enjoy it.

We have So much to be thankful for. Bringing home a new baby into your family makes you realize all the blessings you have and all of the amazing friends and family you have that are all there to support you.
