This was the first year, in 6 years that Vince and I didn't spend with the Hearn family and have his kids all come out to AZ to celebrate together. We all had so much going on it just didn't work out for us this year. :( Instead of doing a small turkey celebration in AZ, Brent, Alisa, the kids, Vince, Drake and I decided to relocate our party to CA. It turned out to be a great weekend, and a great idea. We were able to spend so much time hanging out together and with the family. I know Mom & Dad were glad we came out & invaded their house too :)
For turkey day, Christina, Lex and Justice came out to Riverside from Newport to have dinner with us. Christina even brought some homemade greens and a delish cranberry sauce. We had a big turkey, Thelma's famous Hearn dressing/stuffing that I made, Alisa's delish banana and yam dish (I hate yams and LOVE this dish!!), mashed potatoes and gravy, rolls, salad....and lots of other foods!! We had enough food for 100 people I think...but seems like we sure finished off a whole lot of it!! Such a good gathering of wonderful family. Truly reminds us how thankful and lucky we are for all we have in life...mainly for having each other.
The serious chef....
I think she is stuck in this pose
Hiding behind the food...
