Sorry - I got a little behind over here - Pictures of the Thanksgiving Feast

We had the Montgomery Academy Thanksgiving Feast her on the Thursday before Thanksgiving. We had a VERY full house. Next year, we will probably have to move it to a larger location. But it was still fun to see and talk to everyone and eat LOTS of yummy food.

I also apologize for the photo quality. My camera just isn't taking great pictures lately. They tend to be dark or too bright, and grainy or blurry. My camera is a Kodak EasyShare Z740, and it is only about 3 years old. There isn't any room in the budget for a new camera, so I am hoping that it just starts getting better soon!

Happy Turkey Day!

A picture of the turkey. I provide the turkey and the dressing. I cooked the dressing in the crockpot this year. I just put the ingrediants in, turned it on low, stirred it a few times, and after an hour and a half, it was done. And it was yummy!

We had to use the couch and the train table (covered with a table cloth) for some people.

One of the toddlers. Isn't she cute?

Thanksgiving Feast 2008!

Every year since November 2003, I have had a Thanksgiving Feast at Montgomery Academy. The past few years, parents, siblings, and alumni have been invited. It is generally held on the Thursday before Thanksgiving and I provide the turkey, dressing and gravy. The parents provide the rest of the food. This year, they brought rolls, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, noodles, mashed potatoes, and cherry, apple and pumpkin pie.

Here is the report (with pictures) of Thanksgiving Feast 2008.

The parents arrived, and then we sing two songs - "Over the River" and "One Little, Two Little, Three Little Turkeys." Then the eating began.
