Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving Day!!
We spent the morning cooking at our house. We smoked up a turkey and made green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and spinach (because I didn't make enough green beans). This was our third go, well...Ricky's third go at smoking the Turkey and it turned out to be really tasty. I think it was much less stressful to cook it than it has been in the past too. We injected garlic butter into the skin before we put it on the smoker which helped it taste a little less smoky.
We had dinner at my folks house this year which was really nice and very relaxing. We sat around and watched Kung Fu Panda and played Settlers of Catan and then watched Lemony Snickets A series of unfortunate events. And now I'm really tired. I'm posting a video of Ricky and Cody playing with the dogs.



5 oclock is going to come too early tomorrow. I'm a little nervous to brave all the little old ladies out shopping at the crack of dawn but we have things we need to get so we're going to venture out. I've never in my life gone shopping on black friday. I've heard it is quite the experience. Maybe I can pull the pregnancy card and people will be nice to me...or not.

Here is a good picture of Cody and Ricky. Cody has declared that he looks really good here. :)
