This was our Turkey Day. The night before Joel brined his turkey then that day he and I spent hours in the kitchen preparing the feast. Joel was in his element. You could see that he loved cooking the turkey (I don't understand it), but we were happy to be together. Joel made mashed potatoes and gravy (ohhh so good) to go along with the cooked bird and I made sweet potatoes, rolls and apple pie. Gabe loved the canned cranberries, Mason loved the mashed potatoes, Joel and I loved the sweet potatoes and Emrie loved the Martinelli's. Before eating our delicious feast we bundled up to take some family pictures outside. Mason and Gabe ended the day drawing and Emrie entertained Joel and I by putting on Gabe's tennis shoes while wearing just her underware. It was a good day. I am so thankful that Heavenly Father has given me my wonderful life with it's many different flavors (Joel is my favorite flavor).

Looks like a wonderful day. I knew Heather was a good cook, but this side of Joel, not a clue! Love the picture of Emrie!
