Thanksgiving 2011

I managed to have two Thanksgiving dinners and take no pictures. Sorry!
We had Thanksgiving this year at our home. Paul's parents came over. Paul cooked the most amazing turkey I have ever, ever, ever had. Wow! So yummmmmmy!
Then on Saturday we head down in Central to have the Meanea Thanksgiving. Wow, how many people get to have two turkey dinners?
Trey's not complaining about that. :)

Thanksgiving 2009

Thanksgiving Day 2009 - Marshall Family

Turkey a cookin'
This year we tried something we've never done before, brining a turkey. I personally had never heard of this until a saw a Studio 5 segment about brining and then the day before Paul comes home and says he wants to try brining the turkey, he had seen a video clip off the Food Network I believe about bringing a turkey. So the turkey sat in the water/salt/herb solution over night and then we cooked it in a cooking bag. We were a bit nervous that it wouldn't be good, no problem if it is just us but we were cooking for others so it had to turn out good. At least edible.
It was such a good turkey, nice and moist and yummy!


Rolls, good ol rolls!

Brett wouldn't let you put down your chip to win connect 4, he always had to win.

Ellie is a little book worm, she loves to look at books, especially books with animals, she makes all the animal sounds.

We had a great Thanksgiving, Uncle Tip (Chris's brother) Mike and his family, Mom and Dad Marshall and our family. It was fun.

Saturday we headed down to Central to have a 2nd Thanksgiving with the Meanea family. We missed Great Grandma and we managed to give Great Grandpa his full of us for awhile. We are getting to be quite a big group and it gets a bit out of hand at times. But we have fun and love each other.
