Thanksgiving

Happy day-after-Thanksgiving to all! We had a wonderful first married-and-in-the-same-geographic-location Thanksgiving together. We celebrated with our friends the Lubbens and had enough food for the four of us to feed 12... Or four for the next week, which is more likely. Here are some pictures of how the festivities progressed:

I made the pies on Wednesday to save oven-space:


The boys on Thursday, waiting...


And waiting...


And waiting...


Our very fancy (Walmart card) table:


The bird (a la Kassie):


The full spread:


And a bonus- Gangsta Claus (as Kyle calls him) after dinner:

We are grateful for home and family, good food and good friends, and to be surrounded by great examples of Christianity and goodwill toward men in our lives. We are grateful to have found each other, to enjoy a loving marriage, and to have a beautiful, happy, cheerful son who gives light to our lives.
