This year we started Thanksgiving prep the day before with pie making and lots of cleaning and rearranging...we purchased an 18lb turkey to feed us and a few friends.
We answered a surprising doorbell ring to find a beautiful flower arrangement from G & G...the boys enjoyed the balloons the most...
Daddy is always in charge of the bird and this year he decided to smoke it...but first the night before you must brine the turkey. The boys really enjoyed watching...
Wishing the turkey a good night's rest in the brine...
Henry really was the biggest helper...constantly asking "what's next?" after finishing a job. Helping Gma snap beans in half for homemade green bean casserole...
Helping Daddy make his smoke bombs...aka filling foil with spices...
Getting ready to put the bird on the grill...
Our beautiful Thanksgiving table...
Already asking for turkey...trying to pass the time with a little turkey art...
Henry finally dressed...after an afternoon shower...looking pretty handsome...
Thankful for each other...
Watching the fire and waiting patiently for TURKEY!!
Finally, time to carve...
Finally, what we had waited all day for...
And PIE for dessert!! With lots of whipped topping...
This year we are very thankful for many things: our two handsome and intelligent boys, our family and friends, our health and safety, the roof over our heads and the opportunities the future will bring. We are truly blessed.
