November 27th, 2008 Thanksgiving Day:
Jason and I hosted Thanksgiving at our place this year and we were so thankful to have Kyle and Brandy over for Thanksgiving dinner! We had decided a few days before that we were going to go for it and cook our first turkey! Jason went ahead and bought the best deal he could find and we ended up starting off our first turkey all 20 pounds of it! In the morning we got up and watched our little sister Josie in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade....her high school got the chance to be in the parade! She is in color guard so she got a whole week in the Big Apple! And excitingly enough we did see her for a split-second in the parade! After we watched the parade we started the cooking! We were proud of our kitchen allowing us the space for both of us to work and cook at the same time! Jason took on the turkey, cleaned it all out and then last minute called mom Silber to get the details about how to cook the turkey. In the meantime I was working on the potatoes, the homemade baked beans, the cornbread corn bake, and the cornbread muffins from scratch! Kyle and Brandy brought the dessert and the wine! Even though the turkey took forever to cook, it was well worth the wait! We had the most moist, delicious turkey we have ever had! And we had witnesses to our amazingness! Kyle and Brandy were impressed as well! We had a great Thanksgiving! Here are some of the pics!
