Thanksgiving

We had a fantastic Thanksgiving and long weekend (more on the weekend later). Thanksgiving day was relaxed and filled with family and fun. Nick had to work, but was home just in time for turkey. Susie's friend came over so, for the first year, we got a decent photo of all four of us. The four of us being, Nick, Susie, Ellie, and me!

As usual we cooked more food than it is possible for 4.5 people to eat in a meal. Ellie really enjoyed the food this year digging into the rolls (we switched it up and made garlic rolls this year), turkey, cranberry sauce, carrots (she LOVES roasted carrots...who knew?), mashed potatoes, olives (of course), and pumpkin pie. Unfortunately she didn't seem too excited by the green bean casserole (Grandma Kost's recipe) or stuffing. As Susie says, "she'll learn...".

We all definitely over ate, but had fun while we did! Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!!
