Hope everyone had a GREAT Thanksgiving. Here at the Spillman home it was delicious as usual. Eric cooked, just about everything (I did the mashed potatoes) we went overboard as usual. Turkey, Ham, Mashed potatoes, Sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, rolls, 2 kinds of stuffing, cranberry/apple sauce & corn PLUS 2 pumpkin pies. Needless to say we had a few leftovers, which is nice because for a couple days afterwards there is no cooking. Omi B, Martin & Bria all joined us again this year so we were able to get a couple of games of marbles in. It was a great. Not to much stress because Eric and I have a pretty good system for cooking and getting things together. This year though, i finally got smart, we all used paper goods instead of real plates (i have REAL china and whatnot, but because of the kids we've opted not to use it, maybe when they are 35, I'll think about it) so paper plates and cups and all of it, no one seemed to mind and it shaved about 1 hour off my clean up, which was nice. After bedtime and goodbyes, Bria, Eric and I watched a movie while we enjoyed desert and a drink. Perfect ending.
I didn't get as many pictures this year, i was to busy eating :-)
