Our Thanksgiving

Well I did it. I made my own Thanksgiving dinner. The whole thing. Wes had to work so we stayed here and had Thanksgiving dinner by ourselves. I made a turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet potatoes, corn, rolls, and pecan pie! I must say, I was impressed that I did it all. We have lots of leftovers since it was just the 2 of us but that's okay, we like leftovers. We ate when Wes came home from work and then we put up the Christmas tree!
Then for the weekend we went to Salt lake to hang out with family. We spent one day with Wes's family and one day with mine. It was fun. We always love spending time with our families.
Wes carved our Turkey:

Everyone was together so we took a family picture!
