Thanksgiving 2012

The Thanksgiving tables are set and
looking beautiful.
The kids table
the big kids table
Grandma Smith's handmade
table runner - so special.
 We moved the sofa's and a big TV
outside so we could relax and enjoy some
football. The weather was perfect.
It was all sooo comfortable.
Darryl found the coffee table at
Goodwill for $20 - score!
Erin & Megan helped peel potatoes
Chloe and Aspen helped make
Grandma's rolls.
(which turned out great - wait till
you see below!)
Mmmmm...
don't those make your
mouth water....?!
The rolls turned out perfect.
Mom would be so proud.
D carved the birds.
We had two - one with butter and herbs,
the other Taylor made Cajun style,
both delish!
Cousins
the kids table, though none of them are
kids anymore - except Logan.
My plate - don't judge....
love all the pretty colors of the wine
bottles and glasses.
me and my buddy
We had a really nice day, not
exactly what everyone had planned
this year....but we sure made
the best of it!
