This year Lydia, Scott, Josh and Lyndsey came to our house for Thanksgiving. They flew into Provo airport and landed at 8 am Thanksgiving morning. Josh ended up being sick that whole day, throwing up. Jake got back around 9:30-10 AM and immediately started prepping the turkey. We had left it in a cold bath all night. He rubbed butter under the skin. And cooked it and basted it every few hours. After the Turkey was in the oven it was only 11 AM. Jake really wanted to start prepping for everything else. Lydia and I convinced him it was way to early to start prepping. We let the kids play out front for a while because it was so nice outside. Jake napped while we were waiting for Lyndsey to arrive. We started prepping around 3 PM. We made mashed potatoes, stuffing, rolls (which were left out rising while the turkey cooked), we made apple and pumpkin pies, and steamed veggies. The food was really good.
The next day was friday. We got all dressed up after lounging around the house to do family pictures.
Saturday, Lydia and Scott and Lyndsey went to Lunch with Lyndseys boyfriends parents. And then Lyndsey left after they got back.
Then Jake had to take Everyone to the airport at like 6 AM.
It was fun to have them here, especially where we had space for everyone to move around. We love having a house.
