Thanksgiving

Oh boy, it's been a while since I've posted anything on here. I guess that photo challenge kind of wiped me out. 

Anyway...I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We spent ours with my sister Kellie and her boyfriend Christian. 



Kellie and I cooked all the standard Thanksgiving food, there were a couple dishes that didn't turn out so great, but oh well, there's always next year  :) 

We had baked brie in puff pastry with blackberry jam and walnuts for an appetizer - so good!

Kellie cooking her failed sweet potato fritters. My stuffing turned out pretty dry and tasteless :(
It was my first time brining a turkey. 
The turkey, brine and I got off to a rocky start, but it turned out really good!


After the turkey was done and the sides were warmed up we all sat down to eat dinner...


then we played Operation, Perfection, Jenga and Chutes and Ladders.


Then we Skyped with Meemoo, Papa and Kerri...


Then we had chocolate pudding pie and pumpkin pie (not pictured).

The end.

  1. Sounds as exciting as our Thanksgiving! Dad cooked the turkey, I made the stuffing, Kerri cut the veggies and made an apple gellette, Ken and Dad made chocolate pie, Ken and Andrea torched the meringue for the pie, and I did the most important part...going to Costco to get the prized pumpkin pie!
