Thanksgiving 2009

I hosted my first Thanksgiving this year. Here are my favorite photos.

"Grandma" with her first grand-baby

One of the million reasons I love my parents - this is how their laptop is decorated.

Doing yoga in my living room. Loki wanted to participate.


"What do you mean, I only get to use one yoga mat?"

Ashley helping cook the Thanksgiving meal.


Mom before the Thanksgiving meal.


Evan & Ashley before Thanksgiving.

Our dining room table all dressed up for its first use.


The plates with the holly on them were originally purchased by my parents in their first years of marriage. My mom gifted them to me and I am excited to use them every year.


Another shot of the table.


The kitchen table all set up. Yes, there were notecards showing where each dish should be placed.


A close-up of the table.


Eric, Evan, and Ashley in the living room.


We had some free time while Mom & Dad went to pick up the turkey. Here's Evan & Ashley's photo shoot.





I really don't think I was as mad as I look. Eric had just spilled a drink on the coffee table.

Eric & me in front of our tree.


The turkey right after it arrived.


This is what a 26 pound turkey turns into after it has been cooked and sliced.


Ashley looking cute.


The four kids with our champagne.

Zoey being cute by the tree.

The boys playing video games.

Trying to get a photo of Mom & Dad with the kittens.

Zoey wasn't having it.

Not a happy kitten.

Loki started losing interest as well.


Dad & Loki

Evan & Zoey. I promise he is not strangling her.


So sweet.
