Wordless Wednesday: Our Thanksgiving in Pictures

Wednesday, December 02, 2009 Posted by Jolly Mom


Our first turkey. Mike was very proud. It turned out great. He brined it and cooked it in the Big Easy. It was delicious.


The cooking started on Wednesday night. Prepping. Baking. Up until 5 am.


The aftermath.


Homemade pumpkin waffles on Thanksgiving morning. Recipe courtesy Amy @MomAdvice. I highly recommend you make these. Best. Waffles. Ever.



Setting the table.


All of our hard work paid off! Thanksgiving dinner.

    That looks like quite the feast there. I like the way you showed the pictures in the post, too. I was overwhelmed by all of the Thanksgiving shots I took that I pretty much just ignored it all together. I'm a bad blogger that way.
