Happy Thanksgiving

Hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving with family and friends. We were thankful to have Grandma and Grandpa Kuipers come in from Holland and Amber and David joined also. We also had one of David's friends Jamison join us for our turkey dinner. It was a great time, cooking, enjoying some wine and catching up.

This year, Courtney decided to try and deep fry a turkey. He's always wanted to do it and since family was coming over and he didn't have to work (he had to work last year), he wanted to try it out. So, my dad brought his frier and we deep fried the turkey. It turned out so good. It was the most delish bird I've had in a long while.

McKaila even enjoyed some turkey and stuffing. Last year, she was only a month old, so while we were eating, she was sleeping. So, it's was great to see her enjoy it all this year.

Yummy food
Thirsty after all that food
