Thanksgiving

So, I really like food, and therefore, I really like Thanksgiving.  The only problem I saw with Thanksgiving is that you had to wait all day for the yummy eating to begin and by then, your stomach shrinks and you can't eat all the yummy stuff that you want.  So, we have started what I hope to be a yearly tradition.  Yummy Thanksgiving Breakfast!  We had my dad, my aunt, my cousins and by brother and his family over for pumpkin waffles with apple cider syrup, bacon, potatoes and eggs.  Mmmm!

 John's nieces Hannah and Emma and nephew Justin joined us for the day

Then later that day, we headed to my mom's sister's beautiful house for Thanksgiving dinner.  Another great idea: appetizers before the turkey.  My aunt had so many wonderful things to eat, it was great!  My favorite had to be crescent wrapped brie with cranberries in it (not sure what it is really called, but I must get that recipe!) and the fruit salsa on toasted tortillas.  Ya, so I pretty much ate all day and loved every minute of it!

Jordan was fighting sleep on Linsey shoulder because she just didn't want to miss any of the party.  I am pretty sure she thought all those people were there for her.  She is such a social bug!
