Our Thanksgiving Feast

The last leaf has fallen!!

Steffi, the cook, brings all the ingredients for her amazing Thanksgiving meal!  John and I procured the turkey and ham.

Must have consultation on the decorations





Preparing the napkins

Steffi tackling the task



 The fun begins - prepping the turkey


Two-man job - binding up those legs

 
The ambiance is taking form.











 



The potato peelers


Removing the butter muslin



 What a beautiful bird!!




Guests arriving, writing on paper leaves things/people for which they are thankful

 
 Let the feast begin!!  Everything tasted delicious!






The kids played downstairs (Thanks, Zach, for sharing your toys!)



Dessert - apple pie, pumpkin pie, cherry pie, peanut butter pie and mini pecan pies


Here's the group gathered together for a photo.   Unfortunately one family of four wasn't able to join the celebration because of sickness.

 Here is our thanksgiving tree!
