Thanksgiving Trip ~So Much to be Thankful For ~Spending Time with Family ~Preparing for the Main Event

This retired teacher spent a glorious Thanksgiving Week 
with our daughter and son-in-law.

The first night dinner plan was flexible,
just in case I missed my connector flight in Minneapolis.

As soon as my arrival time was confirmed,
their lasagna went into the oven and they hopped in the car
to scoop me up at Logan International.

It was sooo good to see them.

Emily and Jake love to cook.
This was their first time to prepare
Thanksgiving Dinner together.
While Jake thoroughly washed the bird...

Emily prepared the brine.

Next, the pie crust...

and the pumpkin filling.

Perfectly fluted.

Ready for the oven.

Ready for the Thanksgiving Table.

Speaking of the table,
Jake and Emily gathered some nature
while they were visiting his parents 
in New Hampshire.

They put this centerpiece together
to adorn our tablescape.

I have so much more to share,
please stay tuned.

Take care,
~Natalie
