Thanksgiving...on saturday...in england

YUM YUM!!

We had a GREAT day!! the sun was shining (in contrast to the recent horrible weather)
and we all took part in the prep of the meal!!
We started at 8am, and we sat down to eat at 2pm!!


first we made some crafts...turkeys, color pages, acrostic poems, and pilgrim hats!



samaria made a peach crisp...


cana made an apple pie...

judah made pumpkin bread
(which was actually butternut squash bread, because i couldnt get a hold of any pumpkin)...he had a little too much fun with the blender...


each dessert turned out amazing! great job guys!!


i made my first turkey!!
(the store ran out of gloves, and those who know me well, know there is NO WAY i am touching raw meat,
so i compromised with baggies and rubberbands...hehe!)


jeff worked on mashed potatoes and random other things.
(looking unusually cheerful here with a potato stuck on the end of a knife)


all in all, we had a great meal, but missed all our friends and family!!

Thank You Lord, once again, for your great provision!!!
