Thanksgiving 2008

So, I promised photos and these are from our Thanksgiving!! John prepped the bird, stuffed it with help from my mom and got it in the oven. I helped get the stuffing ready to be stuffed and then later I made the green bean casserole. My sister was in charge of the mashed potatoes and she ended up "forgetting" about them and her hubby, Dave took over with me being his sous chef....I don't think he has ever made anything but boxed...I could be wrong though. Enjoy our photos!!! We had a FABULOUS Thanksgiving with a lot to be thankful for!!

Mom and I working on the stuffing...she just was adding herbs I did the rest!!

mixing the wet ingredients with the bread crumbs

stuffing the bird!! This can be a messy job!!

mom overseeing what John was doing making sure he was doing it correctly so that he can prep our turkey that we have in our freezer when we cook it!!

Aidan cutting potatoes to put into the pot of boiling water...don't worry the knife was a butter knife, and the potatoes did not go in the pot.

The Nana...after a long day...we all were tired after our second turkey dinner. The first one on Thanksgiving, my brother and Eric couldn't make it so we had a second feast on Sunday!! This way our turkey could cook some more. Still wasn't done after 2-3 more hours of cooking....10+ hours total of cooking and still raw in places....CRAZY!!!!!

Family photo....don't know when the last one was taken. I thought it was about time. Not to mention that I need it for a project!!
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
