Thanksgiving

Hey Y'all! This is Schaefer typing for Rob tonight for reasons you'll read about in our next post...that's right we have TWO tonight!!


While I was hard at work on Thanksgiving, Rob explored the inlet/bay that is 2 minutes from our house! This sailboat and all other sailboat pictures henceforth are hereby dedicated to Dennis. Enjoy :)

Which one would you like Dennis? I imagine they are all pretty cheap ;)

Besides Rob's handsome mug, you can also see little Jellyfishes!! Rob says jellies give him the willies. (Anyone have any good jellyfish stories? The best ones usually involve pee...) 

We continue to discover mountains all around us! On clear days like this we get excited for the summer so we can explore everything around us!

Rob thought people would enjoy the irony of this picture. The capitol building of the tree-hugger state in the background of a massive pile of cut trees. :)

Rob set the table and made the turkey napkins while I was at work. (Most people don't know Rob has a black belt in oragami.)  What he doesn't want you to know is the amount of tape he had to use to keep these guys up. ps thanks to Aunt Linda for the sweet sparking cider glasses!

The handsome hubby working hard on his surprise turkey dish! It was quite delish!!

The sweet spread...for two people. And yes we ate some today, for the fourth day!

Our first Thanksgiving as Mr. and Mrs. Bell!

We made it a formal affair, pulling out the fiestaware for this special occasion.

Turkey with homemade BBQ cranberry relish, sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes, stuffing, sister shubert rolls, and broccoli salad.

And for dessert we had...raspberry whip!! I wouldn't let us have a pie for just the two of us. But next year we might just have to make a small strawberry cream cheese pie :)

Don't forget to check out our previous post..entitled Christmas tree adventure! That one has a great story :)
