1st Thanksgiving at our place

The table before guests arrived. We had to figure out how to seat 10 adults, so my dad made our table bigger with plywood and duct tape!


Dinner is served! Turkey, sweet potato pie, green bean casserole, broccoli souffle, cranberry salad, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, and my favorite: japanese pumpkin soup! I have to admit that the only thing I made was the mashed potatoes. All the ladies came with two or three dishes to help make this spectacular feast.

The kids table. There was a lot of chaos going on at this end of the room. It wasn't long ago that we didn't have a kids table at all...or maybe Trisha and I were the ones sitting at it. Our family has certainly grown!Taking a break from dinner to have some fun. Lyla is pushing her cousin Emilia in a baby doll bed.

The first big dinner hosted at our new house was a success! Happy Thanksgiving to all! This year I have so much to be thankful for: Jesus, my wonderful husband, beautiful daughter, baby boy on the way, and all in this fantastic house. Thank you, Lord! We are blessed.
