Thanksgiving 2011

I'm way late on this post. But, whatever.

We had a really fun Thanksgiving this year. Most of the family was able to be in town for it, too. It's more tricky now that everyone has spouses. Well, except me. Buzz kill.

Anyways...

Middle Sister and I worked on setting the table the evening before TG. Because of Pinterest, we were able to make it look really good. Before dinner on Thanksgiving, though, one place setting of nice China was replaced with a plastic plate and sippy cup. China + nice stemware + almost 2-year-old Nephew = possible disaster.

The night before I, along with Middle Sister and BIL, made up some pies and set the rolls out to rise. If you're looking for an amazeballs pie crust recipe, check out Pioneer Woman's recipe. We used it in the apple pie and it did NOT let us down.

Nephew, enjoying some Monkey Bread for breakfast. If you haven't had MB, you must try. It's a sticky, ooey gooey, sometimes gut-rot inducing, pile of sweet rolls. But, it's totally worth the possible gut-rottage that may take place.

And then, he clearly wanted the camera.

Every one is always stuffed post-TG meal. So here is Nephew relaxing and chugging his milk. All while in his old/ Miss Niece's current baby carrier.

The majority of my picture are of my Nephew. Why? Because he's the cutest out of all of us. So, duh. Why wouldn't I take a million pictures of him?

So there's the TG wrap-up. Expect another one or two from me today, as I'm trying to catch up before I head back to school. Have a good early afternoon!
