I love our Thanksgiving traditions. Some we grew up with, and some we made on our own since moving to Idaho.
The Macy's Day Thanksgiving Parade

Home videos... and even sillier ones, like seeing who can blow the candle out at the end of the meal in the least amount of tries!
.Then of course the baking, cooking, basting, mixing, pouring, stirring, etc., etc.
I was told it was our most delicious turkey yet... I'm gettin' better every year! (I wonder when I'll be able to do it without googling "the simplest way to cook a turkey") :)

Aunt Kelley and Uncle Tyler came over that evening for pie. Tyler, I publicly apologize, again, for making you gag. I really thought it would have been different than normal cheesecake!!

I am so thankful for so many things. I have an endless list. But on this day, I am truly grateful for a husband who does all of the Thanksgiving dishes. All 12 batches of them -

HUGE blessing. Huge.

Hi Tracy and all,
I love all of your traditions!! The food and turkey look great. Oh, I'm with Jack on Santa at the end of the Macy's parade... would you believe that I (a grandmother) still get goosebumps when I see him at the end?!? Everything about your day looked wonderful. Glad you are all doing well.
Love,
Aunt Annie
P.S. Jack looks like a dangerous turkey carver! tee-hee!
Your turkey looks so good! Good job! The picture of Chip with his favorite part of the turkey...I think his face says enough, no need for a caption. :)
I just think you guys have the greatest family. I am thankful for great friends like you that are a great example to us! We love you!
Wow! That's all I can say. Wow! You people are awesome.
Thanksgiving can be a fun, relaxing day, can't it. A really nice holiday. Glad that all is well. Chip is indeed noble in doing all those dishes, but then he wouldn't have liked the way anyone else did them, now would he!
Love you all!
