...a Happy Thanksgiving!! This was our first Thanksgiving together (as married's). We didn't have enough time to go to Colorado, and since Collins parents are in Africa on a mission his siblings all did their own thing. Luckily, we were still able to spend the holiday with people we love! After work on Wednesday, we drove down to Alpine and stayed with the Denneys through Thursday night!
Craig, Sheri, Kim, Brett and Kristy invited us down to have Thanksgiving with them. It really felt like home away from home. I had a replica of my mom's apple pie. If anyone has tasted it, you know that she makes THE best apple pies. They are honestly scrumptious. mmm!! We have a few apple trees in the back yard, so I used them to make a pie. It wasn't quite as perfect as my mom's, but it was still super delicious. I should have taken a picture of it by itself, but of course I forgot.
I also made my dad's famous mashed potatoes (with a twist). He is from Idaho, so he obviously knows how to get it done and make them perfect. This time, Sheri had a few additions that I went with, and they were actually pretty darn good. I did get a pic of the whole feast, kinda. Crappy shot, but I did what I could.
We had a blast cooking together, rocking out to Janet Jackson thanks to Kimi D. :) While we were eating, we had a little visitor. He was just hangin out in the back yard. I think he wanted to get on the swing set, but decided against it when we were all staring at him from inside the house.
