Giving Thanks

Bryan shared his Thanksgiving pictures with me, so now we have visual proof of what may be the best turkey I've ever had. It was amazing. He also learned how to carve and plate the turkey so it would be easiest to serve. This year I learned how to cut, peel, and prepare butternut squash. It was delicious, but a lot of work. Also, we learned (during the leftover portion of our weekend) that squash arcs in the microwave. 

Behold, the glorious turkey.


The girls made centerpieces for our Thanksgiving table at a virtual Primary activity they attended. I think it might be the first time we've actually ever had centerpieces. Can you find them among the food?


We all worked really hard during the week leading up to Thanksgiving to have the kitchen/dining room free of boxes. That morning Cooper and Topher worked together to tidy up the great room/playroom. Thanks to all that work, we had a much more relaxing holiday than we otherwise would have.


Cooper often asks us to take pictures of his food. We usually say no, but on Thursday Bryan agreed it was a meal worth capturing.
