Happy Thanksgiving!

Little late with the pics, but since I am in blogging mode here, here ya' go. We seem to always do Holidays alone since we moved here regardless of the fact that we DO invite people. Lol But we LOVE it also. No hostessing- any gal can be thankful for that. I finally ramble into the kitchen to begin cooking when honestly? Lately I just feel like I was on a desert island alone...but you know, the KIDS and all that....lol
And Jeff has all the potatoes peeled and the eggs boiled and peeled and well, he is just that kinda guy. We are under some of the worse stress of our lives right now and he is still peeling potatoes. Sigh. Dinner came out great and at .40/llb for that bird, who can complain. Our turkey only cost us 6 bucks and was DE-lish!


We always let the girls have sparkling cider on this day and New Years eve. They love it.



Lauren and Jeff made those little napkin holders in the morning with a glue gun and everything! GO best Daddy of 4 girls!

We spent our first Thanksgiving ever alone as a family today and I loved it. I wish we could do that every year. No pressure, just good family time. Your meal looks wonderful and Jeff and Lauren make amazing napkin rings!

We spent many Thanksgivings alone when we were here and there with the military... it is more relaxed.

We're always alone on the holidays. I minded the first year we were here but it's gotten better and better and I sort of like doing what I want, when I want. This year we went to Greg's friend's house for Thanksgiving. It felt weird to not be in my own home, but it sure was nice coming back to a clean house.
