Thanksgiving, 2008

We were incredibly blessed to celebrate Thanksgiving twice this year!

We don't have any pictures from our first celebration, on Wednesday, with the Fowlers (darn those rechargeable batteries that haven't been recharged!).
On Thursday, we went to some dear (newly-married) friend's house to celebrate. It was quite the experience--neither one of us had ever made a Thanksgiving meal on our own. So, we divided the menu and conquered! And aside from a couple forgotten dishes (like the mashed potatoes! how does one just forget mashed potatoes in the Thanksgiving meal!?!? yes...that was my doing...), we did just fine!
The dining room table:
Da Boyz: Thomas holding Indy (as in Indiana Jones) and Kevin.
Thomas cutting the Turkey...which was absolutely amazing! Not bad for a first time!
Steph showing off the giraffe oven mitt Thomas's grandmother bought them.
And then, after dinner, the real party started...as in Guitar Hero.
Steph and Kevin getting down with their bad selves.
And where there is music (or something like it), there must be dancing (or something like it).
Kevin and Me attempting a hoe-down.

It was a wonderful evening of time with friends, and we are very grateful to have them in our lives.

One lat pic for the road:
