That I am not just now posting about our first ever Emerson Thanksgiving! I suppose this needs a little further discription. Obviously, we have had many Thanksgiving feasts, but this year the hubs demanded asked if he could make a Thanksgiving feast at our house, and invited his best friend from high school over for lunch, as he is going through a divorce and needed some cheering up. Reluctantly, I said okay. See, I am not a huge fan of Thanksgiving food ((please, don't send me any hate mail)), and so I really thought it was a waste of money. On top of that, I wasn't so sure that the hubs could actually pull it off. I am here to tell you that i was (gasp) wrong! It all turned out so wonderful! We had way a little too much food left over ((justin and I totally argued in the target turkey aisle for a good ten minutes about what size of turkey and ham to get --- he won the arguement, but I ended up being right--we so did not need a 13 lb. turkey and half of a ham for three people!)) , but it was still a great day! I am actually looking forward to a feast again next year!!
The spread :)
The Turkey, obviously :)
Delicious ham and rolls...double yum.
Meme's dressing. Justin stayed up until 11:30 making his Meme's famous dressing. If only I could get him to stay up until 11:30 doing laundry ;)
The proud chef and his bird.
The boys and their full bellies ;)

Wow, what a man! It all looks so yum!!
And why is that they'll stay up late doing what they WANT to do......??
wow!!! that's a lot of food! looks good ... but i'm with you. i'm NOT a fan of thanksgiving food. i'd rather have lasagna and garlic bread any day! i think we ought to get together next year, drink wine, and eat lasagna until we are sick. sounds like a plan!!! :)
