Instead of heading to Mom and Dad's this year, we celebrated Thanksgiving at Scott and Tina's house. As usual, we had plenty to eat. I brought my expected three loaves of homemade sour dough bread as well as two chocolate pies and a turkey veggie tray. I've enjoyed watching Keely make
her version for the last two years, so I wanted to join in on the fun. This year, I giggled the whole time as I made this cute fella.
Scott prepared a fried turkey, but he also shared a smoked turkey with us that one of his neighbors gave him. As if we needed even more meat, Mom contributed a honey baked ham. It was all delicious!

There were so many sides: hominy, roasted sweet potatoes, candied yams, pumpkin muffins, cranberry congealed salad, deviled eggs, pumpkin dip, broccoli, green beans, dressing, and Tina's
cheese baked grits (my personal favorite!) . . . just to name a few.
Desserts spilled over to another table: Rice Krispie treats, fudge pie, pecan pie, German chocolate cake, tapioca pudding, and
chocolate meringue pie. Mmmmmmm.
Typically, food takes center stage at our Thanksgivings. Not this year. Not surprisingly, babies stole the show!
I'm so grateful that most of our extended families are able to get together as much as we do. In fact, we were even blessed to have our cousin Janie join us from Texas! A huge thanks to Scott and Tina for hosting this year!
