Turkey Day 2004

This Thanksgiving was a million times better than last year's. Grace was about a week old and hungry all....the...time...

Let's take a little trip back in time to Turkey Day 2003...
We cooked a turkey, made mashed potatoes and some other random things that a very demanding one-week-old-Grace would allow us to. Brandon did a lot of cooking since I pretty much had Grace attached to me the whole time. When we finally sat down to eat the turkey was still cold in the middle and Grace started screaming for food...for about the millionth time that day. I was sad, sad, sad...and hungry.

Fast forward to this year...
Fabulous time! We went to Bill and Melissa's so we didn't have to cook. I made a cheeseball and dessert, but that was it. We show up, Grace and Will play nicely...mostly, and we eat. When they got a little out of control, in went the Baby Einstein and instant calmness. We all ate a delicious hot meal (thanks Melissa's Mom!!!!) and there was no crying...by anyone. Wonderful.

Hope everyone's day was as fabulous as ours!
Cheers and love-
