Our Thanksgiving...

For me, the day started off really nicely...I slept in a bit while Garth, Garin, & Jonathan went to play football at the church building with the other Dads, sons, uncles, etc.

When Garth came home I prepped a bunch of ingredients (I had done a lot of the dinner/dessert stuff the day before) and Garth and the kids peeled potatoes & prepared them for baking & mashing. Of course we often do double the potatoes so that lefse can be made afterward...sometimes by me, sometimes by Garth, sometimes both! :-)

Jonathan took a quick nap!

And after all of the kitchen work was done we ended up with this...Turkey, stuffing, sweet potato casserole (we are trying a new recipe every year for fun-we liked this year's quite a bit), mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, rolls, jello salad, and a Pitt family tradition-sparkling cider! :-)

Here is a view from our end of the table...

and then the other end!

Garin and his little bud...

Just because I think he is cute...

Garth's favorite pie...the only one he insists that I make every holiday!
