Family Thanksgiving.


I was up early this morning to petsit so that I could put the turkey in the oven by 9am. What is the best thing about a turkey recipe that calls for 2/3 of a bottle of champagne and another recipe that calls for orange juice? Well, mimosas with the left overs of course!


My fridge hasn't been this full in a long time! Everything is all made up and ready to pop in the oven.


Cale rode his bike over over after he went Black Friday shopping in Cheyenne with his girlfriend. It's a beautiful day, nearly 50 degrees and sunny. Lunch was still cooking, so Briony and Cale worked on a gingerbread house. It's a bit minimalist.





Lunch consisted of turkey, stuffing, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, macaroni and cheese, watergate salad, homemade biscuits, mashed potatoes, yorkshire pudding and bisto gravy.




 After lunch, we decorated ornaments.



We tried to take family photos in front of the tree, but it was so bright outside, that they didn't come out very well.
