Thanksgiving 2011

We Are Thankful for Family!!

This year we celebrated Thanksgiving with the Trevino Family.  Dinner – well it was really lunch – was at our house this year.  This was my first time cooking a turkey – and thanks to my cousin’s blog Junk In Their Trunk it turned out well.  The turkey took longer than expected to cook.  Well, it helps if we don’t trip a GFI outlet in the process.  I got a new roaster to cook the turkey in and it does not have a power light.  The GFI got tripped at some point and I did not realize it until I was thinking that they turkey should be about done….Oops!!  Lesson learned, I will be checking the roaster constantly next time.  The whole Trevino family was present and lots of fun was had.  Of course there was lots of looking for deals in the wonderful Black Friday ads.  There was also the annual Cowboys football game on the television.  Tons of playing by all of the kids – especially the youngest!!  Emily had this really cute dress with a turkey on – she is always so festive (I wonder who dresses her???).  I always enjoy having our family all around us!! Here are some pictures of the day – taken by the wonderful and talented photographer – Sierra Todd!
