Thanksgiving at our house


I'm not going to get real wordy with this post...the pictures tell the story just fine.  We had a wonderful time at our house.  We were so glad for all the family who came to make the day special.  We enjoyed the feast on the day....and I didn't have to cook for two weeks.  Just opened the refrig and decided which leftovers to heat up next!  I finally got everything down to one refrigerator, and then still later, could finally see the light at the back!!  I didn't provide it all, by a long shot.  Everyone contributed a lot, and I guess I should have sent more left overs home with everyone ;-)
Amy's Caramel apple pie, just before baking

Amy is at work on a lattice top for cherry pie and pecans are roasted and ready to go yet another pie.  Yes, Amy is the pie baker extraordinaire!

I bought some sand and molds at the craft store for the kids to play with while at our house.  It was a popular pastime and highly recommended for kids! It's not even messy when played with in a large tray.

Karla made this turkey.  The fresh fruit was delish!

Abby and Sarah were first to dig into the 'turkey'
