HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
















Well the bird was stuffed and eating, the pies were cooked and cut, and now everyone is sleeping:) Mike goes in at 2 am! At noon there were 4 tents up at Best Buy, people sure look for a bargain. Briana and I made our pies Wednesday night, we got our apples at McQueens apple farm and also made a pumpkin pie. It took us 3 hours but we got it all done. It is so hard to bake with M & M, they are into everything. We had to put all the chairs/highchairs out front as they use these as stepping stools to get to the countertops or the dining room table. When that doesn't work they use the drawers to get on top. It is always something around here. While I had the turkey cooking, Mikaya always tries and opens the oven so I always latch it so it locks, not realizing that it shuts the oven off! So the turkey had to cook an extra hour and a half! good thing we didn't have any guests coming as we ate 2 hours later. The kids really enjoyed the food this year. I made turkey, stuffing, gravy, mashed and sweet potatoes, corn and bisquits, and had pie and cranberry sauce. M & M are following in mommy and daddy's footsteps and had ketchup with the turkey. Briana loved the pie and said she was thankful for mommy and daddy and her brother and sister. We count our blessing this holiday season and are so thankful for our children, our marriage, and our health.
