THanKsGIVINg WITH THE AceNUts-- PREPARATION

This Thanksgiving was to be spent with my mom. (we switch off every other year between my family and Paul's) There have been a lot of changes through this year for us as a family. One of those changes was my Dad getting re-married. So, with the holidays coming I wanted nothing more than to not have to split the day between Dad/Mom so in hopes of things going my way I thought I would attempt inviting them all to dinner at my place...............
Believe it or not it was a TOTAL SUCCESS!!! I could not have been happier with Thanksgiving this year.
We has quite the feast at our place and we did the turkey and homemade stuffing. Yes, homemade stuffing.
When we do Thanksgiving with Paul's family the stuffing is the one thing that I look really forward too. We always go to Brent and Wendy's the night before to help prepare and do lots of stirring to get it to it's perfection and we wanted to bring this tradition in to our own home.
I love that it making traditions of our own we LOVE traditions that come from our own families and want to incorporate those. It is a good feeling!
Thank you to our parents for these yummy and memeorable traditions to become part of our own.
This is the preparation of the turkey. Tre' helped get the turkey bag ready by shaking up the floor and putting in the celery. Dad stuffed the turkey, and I took the pictures :)

P.S. getting a turkey ready is DISGUSTING!!!!
