Giving Thanks


What a wonderful Thanksgiving. Rob, Jack and I had a wonderful, relaxing day together. It was looking a little questionable on Wednesday night when the thermostat on the oven went out while I was neck deep in pies. This is the second year we've experienced this SNAFU. Our neighbors, Sarah and Davis, gave us the key to their house while they are in San Diego in case we needed to borrow an oven or two. I was able to trick the oven into working and we filled our house with the wonderful fragrance of roasting turkey and all the trimmings. Jack joined us at the table this year. He liked the turkey and LOVED the cranberry sauce! He even got his first taste of little marshmallows on top of the sweet potatoes. We had a delicious meal and then watched a few movies. I don't think Kung Fu Panda is related to Thanksgiving, but Jack enjoyed it. When it was finally pie time, Jack helped Mommy whip the cream and then we dug in. He prefers pecan, just like Mommy!

P.S. Here's the Thanksgiving photo that never seems to make it into the album! HA! It was worth it.
