Thanksgiving

 We are so lucky to live near both of London's Grandparents.  However, this has made holidays quite stressful as we bounce from house to house trying to hold down two Thanksgiving Dinners.  So with sad hearts, we decided to celebrate Thanksgiving with only one family this year.  Here we are at the Wyzga's house minus Brandon and Charity who have also decided to only to celebrate with one family each year.    
 Next year will be the Simpson's turn to have us for the whole day.  
The food was excellent.  I made my stuffing recipe that I reserve only for Thanksgiving dinner and Jesse pitched in with his garlic mashed potatoes.  Chad even helped out and made sweet potato crunch.  Dad gave the turkey a good rub down with bourbon and herbs and Mom took care of the rest of the meal.  Butler's Orchard made the pecan pie.  
 London was jealous of my very colorful plate, so Jesse let her try some new dishes with prohibited ingredients like butter and salt heavily added.  Apparently, it tastes much better than her rice cereal.
There was no question to what we were both most thankful for:
Our baby London
