Thanksgiving Day 2011

We had the privilege of hosting Thanksgiving this year and oh my did we have fun!  11 people including 5 boys, ages 5 and under, in our tiny 2 bedroom apartment.  LOTS of action, playing trains, watching the Parade and of course, football, and TONS OF FOOD!!!  We really did have a wonderful time, and I think everyone enjoyed themselves!!  Here are some pics from our busy day!

Getting everything set out and ready to cook!
 You can't do Thanksgiving without the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade!
  Our 24 lb. bird, stuffed and ready to bake!
 Having fun with Elefun!
 Yes, that is our 14 month old maneuvering his way around daddy's iPad!  He's a smart little guy!

 The table all set and ready to be filled with food and family!
 Train time!!

 Yes, I forgot to take a pic before Aaron cut in to the bird, so I took a pretty picture of the side that was still untouched

Be Blessed and Encouraged!
