It may be December 13th, but I am just getting around to the Thanksgiving post! Oops!
Three staples of our Thanksgiving meal are turkey (of course), stuffing, and surprisingly - cornbread. All were present at the feast we shared this thanksgiving, along with the presence of Grandma and Grandpa - all the way from sandy strewn New Jersey! Not only did they enjoy those foods plus green beans, mashed potatoes, cranberry, and rolls, but in Arizona we also have e - l - e - c - t - r - i - c - i - t - y ! In addition to electricity, we also have temperatures worthy of sitting outside on the patio to have morning coffee and read the newspaper. That must be what got Grandma and Grandpa on the plane! I guess seeing us may have played a small role! And we can't forget their first Samour Sounds Bash! So there's lots of reasons to be here I would say!
Thanksgiving morning looked like this - Grandpa working on a project, Rob starting the meal, and Grandma drinking her morning coffee.
The kids got in on the action, preparing celery for the stuffing.
I stayed out of the kitchen entirely, and tackled the turkey day crossword - check it out! It's huge! Sienna helped. No we did not finish, but we had fun in the attempt.
When it was time to eat the turkey, stuffing, cornbread, and trimmings, all were happy. Grandma led grace and then the grubbing commenced!
What a treat it was to have family with us on Thanksgiving!
Grandpa bought and installed a badminton set for the kids. He and Spenser went right to playing once it was up. Check out Grandpa's skill!
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
