We know, we havn't posted in a while. It's been busy now that Gennie is back to work, and I am working two jobs, plus we have had to go Dublin for a weekend for Gennie's reserve duty. I figured since we had a day off that one of us should post something. Since Thanksgiving is now over, I thought I'd let ya'll know what we did this year for Braelynn's first turkey day.
We started with an early dinner (at lunch time) with my parents, grandma, brother and sister in-law, and my cousin and his wife and son. We had the usual turkey (deep fried), dressing, mashed potato's and gravy, rolls, green beans with BACON and MUSHROOMS MMMMMM, two kinds of moms home made stuffing, and candied yams. We had a great time laughing and talking during the meal. Then we went outside for some family pics before coming back in for some home made pies. Mom made two pumpkin, two pecan, and a key lime pie to go with grams apple pie. Everything turned out great and we were stuffed, but we had to go to another dinner at 3pm.
We packed up Braelynn's diaper bag and headed to Gennie's dad's parents for more turkey and all the fixins. For our second round of desert, I had Jamie's apple-pear tart that was awesome, cause it was made just for me (with splenda). The rest of the family had pumpkin pie and Gennie's pretzel salad, made with cream cheese, whipped cream, jello, and pretzels. I know it sounds like an odd combo, but everyone loves it.
We hope you all had a good thanksgiving and hope to get back some blogs or pics of x-mas time.
