I absolutely love being able to host Thanksgiving at our house. Actually getting up early and preparing the meal really helps me be a little more patient in waiting to eat it :)
Although, it's not officially Thanksgiving until I have snuck a forkful (or 4) of my mom's stuffing.
In the morning, Greg and I took Ben up to the middle school track and we got a quick run in. It was nice to be outside on such a crisp and cold day knowing that soon our bellies would be warm and full :)
I made a loaf of bread:
I used some of the baby shower decor to decorate the table :) Thanks, Maureen!
I had seen some really cute place setting ideas in Better Homes and Gardens.
Ben got a turkey leg:
We all got turkeys:
Ben ended up going down for a lonnnnng nap right as we sat down to eat. He wasn't interested in eating ANY part of our meal. Annoying. But he woke up with the cutest cowlick:
Other than eating, we played with toys and watched football and drank a LOT of wine that evening!
It was such a fun holiday - I already am looking forward to Christmas :)
