After some last minute changes,we ended up celebrating
the big turkey day with just
the three of us.
To make it work,
we all had to pull
our own weight in helping out.
Oliver took care of the decorations.
He had some help from his
nursery leader who would send
him home with the cutest
Thanksgiving crafts each Sunday.
I made my first
full Thanksgiving dinner.
I overcooked the turkey
and forgot to set out the rolls
to rise but everything else
was there.
Curtis did the honor
of cutting the turkey.
It was a first for him too.
Luckily, he had Bobby Flay
right by his side
(on the computer)
showing him exactly how to carve it.
While everything was cooking,
Ollie and I watched the
Thanksgiving Day Parade
while Curtis did a puzzle.
It turned out to be
one of my favorite Thanksgivings.
If I had to pick one word to
describe it, I would say,
relaxing.
And it was capped off with the
good news that I didn’t need to
go to work that night!

That Nursery Leader is amazing. I need to remember the Turkey hat for next Thanksgiving. Also, that blanket looks a little warm for Arizona weather. I need it here with the high tonight being -2. Ahh!
Fun! You guys are awesome. I am glad you had a nice Thanksgiving.
I forgot to put out the rolls too, but Tracy put the pan of them on top of the boiling pot of potatoes and the raised in a heartbeat..I will remember that for future reference. Can't wait to see you next week.
