Our First (self-cooked) Thanksgiving...

This year was our fourth Thanksgiving together as a couple but we were unable to travel due to working requirements the day before and the day after and so we felt the need to have a traditional Thanksgiving Dinner anyway so as not to feel secluded from all of our loved ones.

Well this is how it went.

Shane woke up early this morning and made cinnamon rolls for breakfast and then I worked on the turkey (yes Brittnee cooked it). We put it in the oven at about nine and were eating at 1:30. Shane and I both peeled potatoes and I got them boiling and Shane mashed them. I made stuffing and corn, and Shane prepared a jello the night before. The only thing this meal was missing was homemade rolls and family to share it with. I of course had to take pictures since the food was delicious and dinner was a success so enjoy.

*Yes there is food enough to feed more than just the two of us, but we were hoping for major leftovers and sure enough we can eat like this for a week both lunch and dinner.
