Thanksgiving is one of the holidays that has never been the same year to year. In years past we would always celebrate the weekend before Thanksgiving with the Deglmann side of the family so that my parents could get their "adult vacation" for 3 days out at Glamis. My brother and I would spend the days with my Grandma Deglmann who always and the days filled with adventures or just plain lazy days. Once we were old enough to got the privilege of going out to the desert as well. Then the desert trips ended and we would go up to our close family friends house. Then came Josh...we would always split the holidays between our families. We would plan out the day on who's house we would go to first and how much time was spent there before we were off to the second house.
This year was different...Josh wanted to host dinner at our house since it was the first big holiday and we recently purchased our dining room table. Now I am not a party planner nor do I like telling people what to bring, but the day turned out nice. We were able to have the entire family here and able to fit everyone comfortably. Luckily my parents came up the night before to help with the final touches and for my mom to do the turkey to make sure that it would be done in time for dinner and that it would be edible. She did a fantastic job!
So now maybe next year I will be able to cook it like she does, but hey lets not get ahead of ourselves.
