Amy and Curtis hosted the dinner, which everyone contributed to. Curtis did a wonderful job with the turkey - it was moist and delicious, with plenty of stuffing. I made the gravy and brought mashed potatoes and squash. Sara brought sugar snap peas, corn and fresh rolls. Cindy brought a delicious fruit punch and a vegetable platter. And of course, there were Emily's yummy pies. We all ended up stuffed to the gills.
The Kids Table (clockwise from lower left - Max, Sydney, Brooklyn, Charlie, Kenzie, Anson)We fed 10 adults (4 of our children and their spouses - the 3 out-of-town families had their own celebration) and 6 children and two babies.
After dinner Kenzie wanted the little girls to watch a movie in Grammie and Papa's apartment, so the four of them, ages 3 - 5, came downstairs and I put the movie Hoodwinked (a Red Riding Hood exposee - very funny) on for them. By the time I got around to taking pictures, Charlie had to leave, so I just got pictures of Kenzie, Sydney and Brooklyn. A blurry picture at that since I took the picture in the dark without a tripod.
Kenzie, Sydney and BrooklynAnd now Lloyd and I are waiting until we feel ready for our favorite Thanksgiving/Christmas tradition - turkey bunwiches before bed. Soooo good.

I like Amy's new paint job, what color is that?
I was thinking about you yesterday and wondering how your Thanksgiving Day went. I think it was a lovely dinner from the pictures and much like what we do here in the States.
it's really great in real life too, mare. (amy's paint)
everytime I'm in there I think, hmmmm...where can i use this colour in my house..
Tell me what kind of pies she made and what the kind of stuffing/dressing you made. I always like to hear about food and different recipes even if I can't eat those things anymore.
