There was alot in making this Thanksgiving come to pass. I'm so tired to explain all the events, but basically I forgot to take my turkey out of the freezer in time to thaw.... sooo I called my cousin Kimmy for advice, who talked with her son Brian, then she called family friend Tara (who works at Costco) and found out Costco is selling a few more turkeys the day before "turkey day" cause they had sold out. So then I called my cousin Laura, and alot of tears later- cryin' over turkey people- it wasn't really about the turkey but it was the last thing. Anyway Laura called my auntie Mary who was so wonderful and got me a thawed turkey at Costco and the pumpkin pie and rolls that Jeromy was going in later for. I've just been real busy with my mom and her doctor appt- 3 this week! Soo a huge thank you to all those people- especially my aunt Mary who "Saved Thanksgiving Day in 2012" THANK YOU!!!.... I guess I did explain all the events lol
We were going to have Thanksgiving at my parents so it was easier for them. But we cooked the turkey at our house so we didn't have to go over so early. Here's Jeromy putting the turkey in early this morning.
I headed over to my mom's about 10am to start making all the other food over there. Jeromy came about 12:30 with this delicious looking turkey- almost 21 pounds!
My mom and I are ready- doesn't she look great?
Jeromy carving the turkey...
Kenton- isn't he sooo handsome???- eating the drum stick... Jade would always eat that, too. Miss you Jade...Kent took this picture of all of us. We had a nice time. Even got some soft Christmas music playing in the background...
Again- thanks to Auntie Mary- we had delicious pumpkin pie! My mom did alot of her exercises today, working up a sweat so she deserves that pie- whip cream and all.
Thankful to God for a wonderful family, wonderful extended family (yay auntie Mary!!!), my great husband, kids that are all grown up :o( and delicious food- God is soo good!!
