My mom makes the best Thanksgiving table. Simple, elegant, beautiful. This year was no exception.
Our friends the McHutchisons joined us this year. Tara (pictured here) has been my best friend since we were 8 years old. We went to school together throughout elementary and high school, and two quarters of college. During those two quarters we were also roommates. She and her husband, Ben, were in town for the holiday, so they were able to join her family at my parents' house for Thanksgiving dinner. It was the first time any of them had met Kayla.
After the meal, Ben decided to see what would happen to a candy pumpkin when placed in a carbonated beverage. I'm not sure why. But he tried it...in Tara's sparkling cider. It grew bubbles all around it and started letting off little air bubbles, too. It looked pretty cool, actually!
A wonderfully fun day. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

It was a GREAT day. It is a good thing you did not show an "after" table. I liked the picture of Tara holding Kayla. Did you notice Stan in the background? Well, Tara, maybe dad would like to be a grampa!
ReplyDeleteThanksgiving is a time for sharing with family and friends. This is actually one of the few times we had people over outside our immediate family, and it was pretty cool! God has given us our friends, and too often, we fail to remember them. Thanks for sharing the photos!
