Gobble Gobble!

It is Turkey Day! Happy Thanksgiving!
This is Little Bear, he is super adorable!

This is the first year Chris and I did our very own Thanksgiving Dinner!
It was only Chris, Me and Melissa. We had an amazing Turkey that Chris injected with Cajun butter seasoning and marinated over night, then sealed in a moisture bag and baked for a few hours. It was perfect, super moist, excellent flavor, juicy deliciousness! He was my Turkey Man! I did all the sides and Melissa helped as well. Melissa's only request was to have stuffing. And everyone loves a good stuffing, so we made a cornbread stuffing, it was great! Also we had the traditional stuff . . . cranberry sauce, green beans, cream corn, hawaiian rolls, mashed potatoes (that I did make myself and they tasted amazing!) Also Chris' family has a tradition of having sparkling cider and juices for thanksgiving, so we kept that tradition for him and had sparkling cranberry-peach juice, and sparkling white-grape juice. It was all very yummy! And of course to top it all off we had the two pies I made. Pumpkin delicious Pie and Chocolate Chocolate Satin Pie!

DELICIOUS! GOBBLE TIL YA WOBBLE!


Chris was such a sweetheart! He surprised Me and Melissa and gave us these darling Little Bear's on Thanksgiving morning. I love Chris so much! He is so thoughtful!

We love our bears!!!
Miss being sick and rubbing it into my blankets!
Melissa had a cold almost the entire time she was in town with us and Thanksgiving Day she was feeling especially ill. She got me sick! I was sick all through finals week at school! But I was just fine on Thanksgiving! We all still enjoyed our Thanksgiving FEAST!

Thank you Chris, sweetheart for all you do for me! I love you!

Thanksgiving is a special time to remember all the things we are so grateful for.
And we really do have a lot to be thankful for!!

We are so very blessed with excellent health and great education. Wonderful families that we enjoy being with, who love us and take care of us when ever we need them and always! We have many talents that have enhanced our lives and not to mention the amazing technology of this modern time and all the small things that make our everyday lives easier. We always have food on the table and a warm comfortable place to live. We have great friends who are always there for us and are so much fun. I feel so blessed to have such an amazing husband who loves and supports me, our little family, and takes care of us. I feel so blessed to have such amazing parents who have taught me how to be a good and decent person, who have given me all the necessities of life and loved and cared for me through everything. I am grateful for their patience and support.

Thank you Heavenly Father for all that we have been blessed with!
