A lot of thanks to give

We couldn't be more grateful to have Alex home for her 1st appreciable Thanksgiving. Especially considering how much the child loves food (not unlike her parents). We've had a great day cooking & hanging out with our family from Tulsa (via video chat).


Nothing like a kitchen filled with the scents of Thanksgiving

2 great-lookin' turkeys


Clockwise fm bottom left: mashed pots, giblet gravy, yams, dressing, and green bean casserole (center)


Gobble, gobble



So we fed Alex her normal lunch, plus a bottle, then sat down to an early t-giving dinner. Even though she had just eaten (a lot), she kept whining & making puppy-dog eyes until we fed her from our plates. Welcome to the gluttonous American holiday we all have come to know & love so dearly.

In fact, I think I may go for round 2 right now :)

Happy Thanksgiving!
