A Thanksgiving of FIRSTS......

Dennis and I decided to be brave and host our very FIRST Thanksgiving in our home this year. Ok- so we only invited my parents and Dennis' brother, but it still meant I had to set a table and cook the food! My mother came over first thing in the morning and we started the turkey's (yes plural...two of them). This would be our FIRST turkey WE have ever cooked, so we were a little nervous about it. We started one turkey in the oven and the other in a Hamilton Beach Broiler (or something like that). We seasoned them and hoped they would come out tasting good for everyone to eat. Much to our surprise they BOTH came out fantastic. We also made sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, crock-pot stuffing, and salad. We bought some yummy rolls and my dad came and made the potatoes and gravy (thank goodness)! The boys were very excited all day. They couldn't wait until the food was ready (and when it was, they took two bites and they were done)! After dinner it was off to the Old Dogs movie. So after hosting our FIRST Thanksgiving and cooking our FIRST turkey, our little baby boy rolled over for the FIRST time (I know this is a little late, but he does have quite a lot of body to roll)! Whew were we all tired!
