Thanksgiving

I am finally getting Thanksgiving pictures up for this year. This year we were able to have Thanksgiving at our new home. My parents didn't feel like traveling to see anyone else so they came over and joined us. Shaun and Holly and the kids went to Idaho. we tried to invite friends over but everyone else had plans. It was just a small enjoyable day. It was also my first time making a turkey and Mitch and I were determined to make it moist and yummy. We put it in brine over night, and cooked it in a turkey bag with sausage smothering it. It turned out very delicious if I do say so myself. Since it was just a small group we didn't have tons of food. my Mom made sweet potatoes and pies. I made the turkey and mashed potatoes and jello/pretzel salad. We also had rolls. It was yummy. I'm hungry just thinking about it:

Since we were also in our own house, we decided to break out the fine china for the first time. It was a very relaxed, enjoyable Thanksgiving. We have much to be grateful for this year!
