We were busy getting food ready for Turkey Day. Hannah came over yesterday and helped Laurie Ann cut up the bread for the stuffing. They set it on cookie sheets to dry. Hannah helped me make the apple pie too. It was nice to have the extra hands to help get things ready.
On Thanksgiving I got up at 4:30 am and was at Cookie's by 5 to get the turkey going. We then went to Boot Camp to work off the food we were about to eat. I went home and cleaned up and then went back over to help her get everything else ready. Dave came over but he wasn't feeling good enough to eat. (He must have been really sick) Ann, Cookie, Alex, Nick, Laurie Ann, and I enjoyed the feast. We got things cleaned up there in time for Laurie Ann and I to run to Mandy, Buddy and Xavier's house. Dave was to sick to go.
Quality time with Aunt Laurie.
Elaine and David were already there. Elaine was helping Mandy get things ready. She had a herb turkey, roasted veggies, potatoes, and stuffing. Elaine make the rolls and green bean casserole. I brought the dessert. Victoria, Buddy's sister, made a great pumpkin roll.
We celebrated Mandy's 26th birthday with her choice of homemade, 3 layer, German Chocolate cake.
I couldn't make it much pass this since I had gotten up so early, the turkey was working on me, it was now 9:30 pm and I still had a good 45 minute drive home. It was a very busy day but I wouldn't have had it any other way. I enjoyed it to the fullest.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Love,
Mickey
