Thanksgiving

We had a lot of family and friends come in for Thanksgiving, some from Texas, some from Kansas, and some from right up the road.

Thanksgiving day started off slowly.  We got a couple of things started, like the turkey, but then we got to have a relaxing morning.

Our friends from Texas, Faith and Christopher, were good playmates for Silas over the holiday break. They are great kids.

Becky helping me in the kitchen, and the only evidence I have that my mother was there - her left elbow.

Mmmmm...carrots.  These were grilled on the BBQ pit and were tasty.

Acorn squash.  They were in the oven for an hour and a half and they still weren't completely cooked.  Oh, well.

Putting the finishing touches on it all.

Caleb making the gravy and Becky working on that acorn squash.

Eli ran around having a good time.  There were plenty of people to give him all the attention he could want.

All in all there were over 20 people this year.  It was great to see our family and friends and spend some relaxing time together.  I love Thanksgiving.
