We had a great Thanksgiving! We did our traditional eat at Litza's pizza the night before. Than on Thanksgiving morning I went out running with my good sis Rach. Than came home and hung out with the family and got Kevin and Cole set to go play football with our ward. (a tradition they do every year) Kevin had to take donuts and drinks since he is in the Elders Quorum presidency. The girls and I stayed home and I cooked a turkey breast. I think it doesn't feel like thanksgiving unless you are in the kitchen cooking something yummy.
So The day before I had made a apple pie. My first ever pie. I felt very domestic.
My assignments for dinner this year was the pineapple slush and two fruit salads for the Bush family dinner. My Mother and I were also in charge of the plate favor. However my Mom pretty much created that one on her own. IT turned out so cute!
Than I made chocolate chip cookies to take for dessert at the Dearden family! We also got to open our traditional present from Grandma and Grandpa of opening a christmas story they buy each year. We LOVE the collection of books we are getting.
We had a nice time visiting with family. I am so blessed to have such great families!
Later that night we went home and put the kids to bed and I went out shopping! The stores opened at 10 this year. Crazy. We stayed out till 3 and I got to bed about 4 in the morning. It was crazy but eventful and fun too.
