Catching up...starting with Thanksgiving

This was the first time I've made a turkey.  I think it looked beautiful but I probably could have taken it out earlier than I did.  I think I read different cooking temperatures for turkeys so I'm pretty sure I overcooked it a little bit but everyone seemed to eat turkey so I guess it wasn't too bad.

 My younger brother came out from Utah for a week and spent Thanksgiving with us.  We had so much fun with him.  My kids looooove him.
 Sam wanted to be like Uncle Geoff (he wears glasses) so Sam found these 3d glasses that came with an outside chalk set his friend gave to him for his birthday last year.  He wore them every day while Uncle Geoff was here and even for a few days after until he misplaced them.

 Dessert time.  We had way tooo much food.  But it was soo good.
 We were so excited to have family and good friends here for Thanksgiving.  We were so fortunate to get to know my cousin Keri and her husband Isaac for the months they were stationed out here and also her brother, Tyler for the short stint he was stationed here as well.  They are so amazing and I miss them already.
