Breaking in the House!! Thanksgiving 2007!!

Two and a half weeks after we officially moved into our house, we hosted Thanksgiving for my entire family!! We had lots of folks in that house! It was a BLAST!! Here is the girl table......(L-R) My sister Joann, my sister Johnna, my sister Jennifer, my cousin Karen and her baby girl, Anna Grace, me, and Sam's new wife, Pan Ke!
The boy table.....Jonathan, Russ (Karen's husband), Austin, and Sam (not pictured are Al, Aaron and Luke!!)
We tried to line the cousins up on the steps, but this was seriously the best picture we got....Starting from the top is Luke, John David, Austin, Catherine, and Ariana.
Can you believe we actually fit 22 in my den!!??

Grandmother with John David and Austin....hanging out on the stairs!!
We had a roasted turkey and a smoked turkey----here are Aaron, Al, and Jonny carving them up! (Thanks to Andrew for the smoked turkey!! MMMMMMM!)
Our Thanksgiving feast.....2 turkeys, green beans, butter beans, corn, dressing, gravy, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, and homemade rolls!! (Whew!!)
I'm hanging out at the dessert table.....Apple pies and pumpkin pies!
Here's the adult table.....My aunt Lois and Uncle Tom (in the small chair!) are front and center, next to Lois is my mom, Joyce, then my dad, John, next is Grandma, Grandpa, and then Grandmother!

Grandma and Granddaddy Green---with Catherine, John David, Luke, Austin, and Ariana!

This is what my dining room looked like before everyone arrived.

The turkey is done......but Aunt Ju Ju needs her makeup!! :)



I got the boys to clean the windows for me! (Al and Aaron will probably never want to arrive the day before if we ever do this again!! Tee Hee!)
