Family Together at Thanksgiving
Posted by Chad under: All Things Elisha; Family; Food for Thought .
It is about time that I wrote about the wonderful thanksgiving we had at my sister’s house. We officially celebrated thanksgiving the day after because mom and dad were flying in on the day itself. This was the first time in a long time that the entire family got together for thanksgiving. We also had the honor of having my cousins Jeb and Becky there.
Of course, it goes without saying that we ate well.
The spread included turkey and stuffing, ham, mashed potatoes with gravy, green bean casserole, pistachio salad, candied yams, and many other fantastic sides too numerous to list. We also ended the evening well with apple pie from my sister, pecan pie from my mom and Susanna’s first time ever making pumpkin pie.
And Susanna treated us to some quiche on Thanksgiving day.
Other highlights would have to be playing foosball, party games and good conversation with all. I also enjoyed watching Elisha play with his cousins.
