Welcome back everyone! Hope you all had a lovely holiday. We had a great Thanksgiving…even if it was a small crowd. Robert’s parents, Granddad and Lou Lou, came over for the day and I cooked us a Thanksgiving feast. It was my first time to make all of my mom’s traditional Thanksgiving foods and I think everything turned out delicioso!…but I guess you’ll have to ask Robert, Lou Lou and Granddad if that’s really true! 🙂
Just as I thought it would, Maxwell and Susan’s little turkey made a great centerpiece!
While I was pretty proud of all the food I made, I think I was most proud of the homemade rolls (my mom’s rolls are a bit legendary in our house)…
and the pecan pie with handmade pie crust…
Yum! I’m stuffed again just looking at it!
Maxwell was a peach all day and even took 2 naps for us. While he was just as happy as could be, he clearly wasn’t into having his photo taken…
Solemn face #1…
Solemn face #2…
Solemn face #3…
And solemn face #4 with cousin Liz who stopped by….
I think he just didn’t want to have to stop playing to “say cheese!” We got plenty of smiles after lunch though when he took his lawnmower outside to do a little work…
Fun times up and down and up and down the driveway!
It was a very happy Thanksgiving!
Maxwell knows how to work off those extra Thanksgiving calories!!! I’m craving those rolls and pie! So proud of both you and Keath for having homemade rolls! The tradition continues!
Lunch was da bomb; everyone loved it. You get an A+ first time out of the gate!
Everything looks yummy! Maxwell didn’t have time for photos, Mama! He wanted to play! play! play!
I can testify to a feast! What a good Thanksgiving and did we have a lot to be thankful for. We enjoyed a great dinner with all the trimmings–even my favorite pie! We had fun visiting with everyone and seeing Maxwell in action. He is everywhere.
The decorations were festive and Robert had the outside in shape. You all have a great home.
I do want to comment on the rolls, lighter than air and melt in your mouth, good.
Thanks for a a great day.
Granddad and Lu Lu
