Happy Thanksgiving

We had a super Thanksgiving. Mom, Dad, and James did most of the cooking Wednesday which left us time Thursday for a baby C photo shoot. Here's a pic of Nana, cow C, and pilgrim K.
For the last 9 years, James deep-fried a turkey but this year we bought the Big Easy and James "fried" a turkey in it. Turned out super. On Wednesday he smoked a turkey which also turned out great. 
Here's our yummy food- collard greens, 30 lbs of turkey, sweet potato casserole, dressing, mashed potatoes. I didn't get pictures of dessert but yummy too- pumpkin pie, sweet potato pie, pumpkin cake pudding. Everyone helped make the food- my contribution was the gravy.
We're enjoying our Thanksgiving table cloth and very thankful for all our blessings!
Baby C woke up for the very end of Thanksgiving dinner.
Kids love to watch Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving.

Baby C spent most of the day napping- it's tiring being a baby. She's gained 7 oz in the last week and grown an inch since she was born. She's also learned to do baby push-ups on your chest, hold her head steady, and be cuddled by lots of people!
