The First Thanksgiving...

...on our own anyway :) We stayed home and had a Wonderful Thanksgiving meal with our friends Sam and Christian. We each made some of the dishes and had a great time.


We cooked our first Turkey (thanks for your help mom!) And even though I was disgusted at first with everything that entails,


it turned out pretty well.


I bought these chocolate bars...


and covered them with some scrap booking paper...





to make place settings.



And while Jeff was at the store buying whip cream for our pumpkin pie, he surprised me and brought me home this beautiful boquet of fall flowers inside a cornucopia!


We made stuffing, green bean casserole, Pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce and the turkey. And they brought sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, and apple pie, gravy, corn, and TX Roadhouse rolls!!!






It was a wonderful day to reflect on all the blessings we have. Happy Thanksgiving :)
