11.27.2008: HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!

This year for Turkey Day, we had 2 families groups to visit and share the day with! Drake spent the day with us also, so he ate lots, played lots, and was BEAT by the end! We started out the day here at home eating breakfast with Alan & Annette. Then we all headed over to Brent & Alisa's for appetizers and drinks with them & Alisa's parents who were in town from Costa Rica. We spent a couple hours over there watching football, letting the kids play, drinking YUMMY champagne, eating lots of yummy food, watching Brent smoke Tom, his turkey. Yes, it is tradition for them to name their turkey! :) Helps the kids eat it for some reason!

Before we could enjoy dinner with them, we had to head out and make an appearance at Vince's brother's house...where some of Vince's family had gathered. We ate dinner there and got to visit with his brother's family, Vince's kids & Mom. They have a gorgeous house!!! And dinner was wonderful! We only stayed a couple hours there as well....since we'd had a very long day! We hit the road and headed home....stuffed with turkey, ham and all the fixings!! GREAT turkey day....spent with family and friends...and it left us feeling VERY thankful for all the wonderful people in our lives!
