This years Thanksgiving was one for the books. It was Brynn's first Thanksgiving! We had a smaller crowd this year. Usually we have about 20 people and this year we were missing my sister, Connor, Jeff, and my cousin Brad. Thanksgiving Day started out like it usually does with football and family... We had an amazing meal that concluded of the usual, turkey, mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing, rolls... and I made my first ever Pumpkin Pie & Chocolate Banana Cream Pie! They were a huge hit and even my dad who doesn't like coconut, loved that pie! I am sure I will be the pie maker for Thanksgiving going forward. They are really not hard at all to make and SO much better than store bought or frozen. As the day went on... the beer was flowing in the family, and for me, so was the bottle of wine! My mom, aunt, cousin and I maybe had one too many cocktails and ended up Christmas caroling to some of my mom's neighbors... yeah, people probably thought we were NUTS. (Which we kind of are!) but we had so much fun just walking my moms neighborhood, practicing our song and singing to random neighbors.
As far as Brynlee goes, she LOVED mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes. And I think the sweet potatoes gave her a little sugar rush... haha!
This year, I am SO extremely thankful for my baby girl, my amazing husband, my family the things we were able to do this year, like go on vacations, build a house and much more! And my amazing friends. You know who you are!
Here are some pictures of our fun holiday! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
