Thanksgiving Fun

 We were so blessed to have Jimmy's mom, Cassi and 'Super' Chris come out for Thanksgiving!

I can't travel anywhere, because of pregnancy, so it's wonderful to have people who will come to us!

On Thanksgiving morning we were up early, baking pies.

Mmmmm....

Connor wanted to make his own pie so he got to mix up all the ingredients!

He really likes to cook with mommy!

He put his ingredients in a shell and we baked it in some tin foil... 

Then he and Vale devoured it... yeah that was pretty much their lunch since we didn't eat Thanksgiving dinner till later... :)

Here is the apple pie we made!!!  Yeah for plumpy pie! :)

We went down to my cousin's house in Redondo Beach for the big feast.

They had dressed Bish, the Chihuahua, up like a turkey... at this point I was so hungry that she was lookin tasty... 

 Stephanie decorated so well!! 

 Everything looked so festive!

Everyone had a really good time! :) It's always great when you can be with friends and family.

The food was not too shabby either... ok the food was AMAZING!!!!

It was almost like, if you can imagine it for a Thanksgiving feast, we had it!

The mashed potatoes were absolutely delicious...

The turkey was wonderful and juicy!

 I ended up making an apple pie, a blueberry pie and two pumpkins...

I think we all ate a little more than was prudent...

 We had Turkey, Ham, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry dressing, candied yams, carrots, corn pudding, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, apple/bacon salad, and rolls.  Oh and then 4 pies...

The kids didn't as much appreciate the food as they did hanging out with their cousin. :)
