Well Thanksgiving went VERY well! I only lit one thing on fire, and that was quickly extinguished and the charred bits were scraped off and the food still served. If you are dying of curiosity, it was the marshmallow topped sweet potatoes. I put them under the broiler and forgot all about them. Note to self, don’t do that.

But besides that, and a wee bit of choas right before the meal was served, I think that it was pretty flawless. The food was great, the company even better. It was a lot of fun hosting it. I posted some pictures over on the other blog. GO check it out. I also just posted a bunch of long over-due pictures…like of our trip to Oklahoma, and of Jessica’s play. I think that since I posted so many of Thanksgiving, you may have to look in the archives to see the other pictures, but they are there. All under November, if I am not mistaken.

One cute thing…On thanksgiving morning I was talking to Allison and trying to tell her what Thanksgiving is all about, and what it means to be thankful. After this I asked her if she was thankful for anything. She replied that she was thankful for Marshmallows. Later at the family meal when we were going around the table saying what we were thankful for, she reiterated this. Very cute.

Oh and both she and Meredith sat at this little picnic table for the meal. I couldn’t believe how little Meredith sat there and ate so good! She didn’t throw food, stand in the mashed potatoes, or do anything else weird.

It was a VERY nice day indeed.
