While last year was our first Thanksgiving as a family of three we did not spend it at home, nor did I cook the meal. This year we decided to have our family Thanksgiving on Wednesday because a certain Mr. would be working all day on Thursday. So I began prepping on Tuesday night and we had a wonderful day on Wednesday.
The star of the show
Raw poultry is not my most favorite thing about Thanksgiving.
The spread.
Dessert and a few fall decorations. Even though we didn't have people over I still cleaned the house and made sure it looked nice for our special dinner.
Gobble gobble.
Side dishes. We had stuffing, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, and a loaf of french bread. Yum.
Hubs got his favorite seasonal beer at the store that morning and was SO excited to open it!
Turkey carver extraordinaire.
Sweet baby girl and I right before we ate.
She LOVED the turkey and stuffing.
This picture makes me laugh. Please note the sticky sweet potato hair and drenched smocked bubble. She was a mess afterwards.
After she finished dinner I stripped her down and she ran around with her new owl hat.
We had a great day together and I can't wait to do this for many years to come. We have been so blessed and have so much to be thankful for. It overwhelms me to think about.
While the hubs had to work today Emma Claire and I got to spend time with some wonderful friends. We had a great evening, amazing food, and lots of laughs. I wold say Thanksgiving 2012 was a success.

You guys are so precious. Great job on the meal! Glad EC enjoyed some of the meal- my babe was worn out by the time we ate and barely ate anything and was not much fun! ;) He had to go take a nap during the middle of dinner. Better luck next time!
