Thanksgiving
















So our Thanksgiving day was pretty crazy (as was many peoples I'm sure!) We started pretty early, I made the stuffing and an apple pie in the morning. Chad put the ribs in the crock pot, and prepped the turkey (yes, I have a salmonella phobia!) We had to borrow our neighbors oven for the day too, luckily he wasn't home 'till later. We had sort of a none traditional/traditional meal, we had ribs, beef steak, turkey, ham, potatoes, stuffing, veggies, etc. Oh yeah, Chad's dad brought an oyster casserole at Chads request, and his mom made potato salad (also Chads request :)), and a salad. I also made a pumpkin cheesecake the night before. Chad's mom, dad, brother Chris, and sister (came later) all came so we had way too much food for everyone! It was a fun, busy day, I'm so glad I have cool in-laws! Kate was a total grandpa's girl, and he loved it! She's becoming more interactive and happy it seems like. And Lucy was her silly self, running around keeping us all entertained!

How's the house hunting going? While I was in Arvada he was busy working w/you guys (I thought about inviting myself along but I didn't think Chad would want another female perspective :) )

Did you make the flower centerpiece from my blog?
Love you!

I did make the centerpiece from your blog, it was a great idea! We put an offer on a short sale house, we've been accepted by the seller, but we are waiting for the banks response...it could take a while I guess.
