Happy Thanksgiving! We hosted twenty-some people this year and for the first time, I was in charge of the main dish.....
Look at that turkey! My dear friend Natalie helped me with all the directions on how to cook a turkey - I followed what she said and it was delicious! :)
Kevin took care of the carving...
Aunt JungMin made sure Peter didn't think he was missing out :)
Food, food, so much food. This is something to be thankful for!!!
Mawna made fall dresses for the girls. Here's the best picture I got.
The day after Thanksgiving, it's tradition for the girls to make candy and for the boys to go shooting. Kevin's family got to participate this year for the first time. Fun was had by all....mostly because the moms get tired quickly and let the kids watch television :)
The next weekend was a kick-off to Christmas with our Ladies Christmas Tea at church. The girls came along with me.
The next afternoon we went downtown to see Santa and to check out the gingerbread house display.
Then, on Sunday we got our Christmas tree. See everyone huddled around that one branch?
Here are all the ornaments - and I left them there. I love this part of having small children. They do it how they want, and around proud of the finished product. How could I move things around? I think it looks perfect!! :)
