Thanksgiving 2013

This year we had Thanksgiving at my parents house.  We started the day by watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade on TV.  Miles loved it.  In the afternoon, Aunt Carolyn came over with my favorite dip, two dollar salad and the Pumpkin Chiffon pie.  She met James for the first time!  Dinner took a little longer than normal.  Of course it didn't help that someone accidentally turned off the oven at some point, while the side dishes were cooking.  No worries, though, everything turned out delicious!  After dinner we lit a fire in the fireplace, watched the Muppet and Lady Gaga special, and looked at Black Friday ads in the newspaper.  It was a simple Thanksgiving with just my parents, our family, Aunt Carolyn, and Danny.  Perfect.

My mom, the amazing cook!

A true expert can cook and hold a baby at the same time



 My plate included mashed potatoes and gravy, carrot souffle, creamy crunchy corn, two dollar salad, stuffing, turkey and cranberry relish, and a roll
