Thanksgiving

I am a little behind on my blog posts but I am going to attempt to catch up over the next few days before school starts back up and I head back to work and start cleaning and organizing for our move on base. I will start with Thanksgiving. For those of you that know me, know that Thanksgiving is my absolute favorite holiday EVER. I like to cook and Thanksgiving is my time to cook everything! Being in Germany makes our turkey days a bit smaller than normal but for some reason I just don't know how to cook on a small scale. I try I really do but we still end up with wayyy too much food. This year was no exception. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal cooked by me and my wonderful helper Ashleigh.

Ashleigh always helps clean the turkey out!

It was a bit of a bittersweet Thanksgiving since we know that next year Robert won't be home for Thanksgiving. I managed to make it most of the day without shedding a tear and we had a fantastic meal and then headed over to our friends the Moreno's for dessert. I hope you enjoy the pictures of our lovely dinner, we obviously enjoyed taking them!

 


Yep that's me always posing for the camera even in the middle of cooking Thanksgiving dinner!



I wonder what he just said!!!!
 


Never a serious picture with this bunch, someone always has to pose like me!
 

As serious as we will get! I <3 my family!
 

Dinner is ready!!
 


Fried turkey!! Come to mama!


20 Thanksgivings later! I <3 this guy!
 


Wah, next year we only have to set the table for 3!
 


Time to grub!
 


Yummy apple crumb pie, just one of many desserts. Caramel Pecan cheesecake and pumpkin pie were chillin in the fridge!


I hope your Thanksgiving was just a great as ours. If you are ever anywhere near us please know that our door is always open for Thanksgiving dinner and you are always welcome!
