Turkey Time

Thanksgiving was finally here!

Cousin Brittan prepared a beautiful Thanksgiving Turkey for us to enjoy!

I woke up bright and early ready for the day to begin at 7 AM.

We figured since we would be eating TWO Thanksgiving meals we would hit up the gym beforehand. Best decision we made all day, aside from eating!

First stop was the Bass House....2 PM: My future brother in-law's parents came in from Winston Salem to spend the holiday with us and we truly enjoyed meeting with them and spending time with them. They are two of the sweetest people and you can tell they adore my sister. What more could I ask for...right? A Bass family tradition is to go around the table to say what we are thankful for. Boy we have so much to be thankful for this year and this upcoming year....and we made sure to get it all out in the open! Dinner was yummmmy....probably the best Thanksgiving Dinner my mom has ever made. Yup that is right. BEST SHE HAS EVER MADE! Turkey, brocoli casserole, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoe casserole, stuffing and cranberry sauce (which I dont eat) I ate a tiny bit of everything so that I could try it all but not fill up before our 2nd stop. We headed over to the 2nd stop around 5:30p.

Second stop was the Schreibman House...5:40 PM: Uncle Bill and Aunt Hilda were in from Texas, Aunt Janet and Cousin Brittan were in from TN and The Littauer-Brodsky family came over as well. We had a total of 12 of us. Luckily we didn't start eating till 7 so we had time to breathe and digest....Oy! We again indulged in another meal of Turkey, two kinds of stuffing, green bean's, squash casserole, sweet potatoe casserole with pinneapple and cranberry bread. Yumm! Around 8 PM my family and Rich's parent's came over to enjoy dessert all together as one big family. We had a great time and by this point we were all stuffed and exhausted.

All the ladies...

All the men...

What a wonderful way to spend Thanksgiving. With family and friends that are so dear to all of us.We felt great....at least I didn't over eat... Philip might be a different story :)
