Thanksgiving 2013

We had a pretty simple and relaxing Thanksgiving. To do this day, I have yet to host and prepare the big feast. Maybe next year will be the year? Anyway, I'm thankful for a mom who does all the cooking. All that I did was make a salted caramel apple pie and some balsamic green beans. The pie was such a production that as I was making it I thought, how on earth could I prepare a whole meal by myself?! Toby has always had dreams of frying a turkey so this year we took the first step and bought a fryer. We decided to buy a chicken instead though since mom was roasting a turkey. The guys got the fryer out but couldn't get it working in time so we ended up frying our chicken for dinner the next night instead! After the big feast we helped mom decorate their tree. The holiday season has officially begun! We certainly have a lot to be thankful for this year and every year!

We tried to get her to pose with the turkey. No such luck!
