Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving Day was SO very nice. I know I already mentioned it, but its worth mentioning again. This year, both my brothers went to their in-laws for Thanksgiving so it was just my parents and me. I invited them to come to Stillwater. They got there around 9:30am and I had breakfast ready with Sausage and Grit casserole (thank you Paula Deen), pumpkin bread, and mimosas! :) Mom brought the famous (and dad's favorite, can't-have-the-holidays-without-them) sausage balls. Kenny was able to stop by for breakfast too. The rest of the day, my mom and I cooked. We made Cornish hens, sweet potato balls (again, Paula Deen), proscuitto wrapped asparagus, yeast rolls (not homemade), cornbread dressing, peach cobbler (Kenny's favorite), Texas sheet-cake, and Bourbon Pecan Pie (AGAIN, Paula Deen...I think you could say we had a Paula Deen Thanksgiving....but we're not complaining...it was ALL very good!). It was fun to cook and listen to Christmas music. Dad watched football and played with the dogs. They brought Frasier.....so Ruger had some company too! Kenny got off work around 6:30 and we had dinner ready. It was so relaxing! After dinner, we played this TableTopics "game" and then watched OSU Basketball. Mom and dad stayed until 10ish...maybe a little after....and then headed back to Tulsa. I am so glad we were able to do this! It was really fun! Hope everyone's Thanksgiving was wonderful!!!
