thanksgiving

what a gorgeous day. family, food, and snow. this year was perfect. i haven't bonded with my family this much in awhile. we played games such as ping pong and 'gladiator' on our new ps3 move, chatted, reminisced, and played with my baby cousin - an adorable little boy with huge blue eyes. he's 8 months old and just learning how to walk. what a sweetheart. the dinner also turned out fabulous. i am very proud of myself! this was the first 'feast' i've ever cooked entirely. usually my family doesn't have as many side dishes, we were all a little overwhelmed and had tons of leftovers...


( turkey, garlic roasted mashed potatoes, cheesy spinach artichoke dip, cheesy corn with bacon, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, tuna macaroni salad, BBQ meatballs, deviled eggs, seasoned green beans and asparagus, pigs in a blanket, candied yams, green bean casserole, and banana snickerdoodles)

(my plate, i couldn't even finish half of it!)

i hope that everyone had a wonderful thanksgiving.
and you know what's just around the corner... 
christmas!
