My yellow paper to prove I beat the turkey!
Okay, so on the week of Thanksgiving I have come to the conclusion that I some how stumbled into a turkey coma which prolonged until New Years. But, better late than ever eh? Because I like to be thorough it's important to start from where you left off. And I am good at back dating. First and foremost I beat the turkey this year at the turkey trot! Sure, he was slower than years past (that's not really important) but I was able to improve my time by a whole 2 minutes.
Doug, Duane, and Dad C.
We spent the day after running that morning over at the Clouse's. Doug decided to attempt a fried turkey. Man, I am SO glad he did. It turned out fabulous. And the 2nd one was even better than the first.
I think we realized what we will be eating for Thanksgiving in years to come. Cajun style turkey..... Yum! Not to mention bringing us back to memories from Thanksgiving in New Orleans.
I volunteered to make all the homemade rolls for Thanksgiving dinner, which included 4 dozen and staying up super late the night before. My hard labor did payoff since there wasn't a roll to spare following dinner.
It looks like Luke had one too many pieces of turkey as well. He lost not one but TWO teeth that week.
Besides consuming a TON of food, bearing crowds on black Friday Doug and I managed to hang my antique door that has been collecting dust in the garage.
Here is the door before painting. I did like the white, but for inside our house it definitely needed some color. Like a big splash of red.
Ta da! Here is the finished product. Merry Merry!
