Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope all had a wonderful, blessed Thanksgiving!

Mine was off the hizzay. Ok, sort of. Or not. Or maybe...

Ok, it depends on how you look at it.

Brief overview of the day:

  • Not enough chairs for the amt of people in attendance
  • Stuffing is forgotten on shopping list, no stuffing present for dinner... people care
  • Cranberry sauce is also forgotten... no one cares (but me)
  • New oven sets on fire (turkey is safe... and delicious!)
  • New oven gets horribly charred inside
  • Smoke alarm sets off; brother's girlfriend fans alarm as we scramble to open windows and such
  • Yelling/anger ensue
  • Raw pecan pie is consumed
  • Smoke alarm goes off again; brother's girlfriend fans fire alarm again
  • Indifference ensues
  • Relatives and friends visit to eat delicious dessert from Balthazar
  • Self cleaning of oven reveals... horrible charring of oven is mostly gone!
  • Manicure + House marathon session until 3 am
  • Sleep

Ahhh the memories... If only we had took many photos to chronicle the chaos... or a video. This was definitely one of my family's more interesting Thanksgiving days...

How about you? :)

Mine was chaotic. My family keeps multiplying at least by half each year as cousins get married and have babies. I left with an awful headache as all my energy was expelled :(
