Return to posting

Alrighty...lets see if I remember how to do this. Sorry for going MIA. I am officially DONE with classes and finals for this semester! So, maybe my goal will be a post a day while I'm out of school. Ambitious?

Even though we're smack dab in the middle of Christmas cheer, I would be remiss not to at least share my Thanksgiving travels. Especially since it involved the.cutest.nephew.ever.

This is Will's "I don't think I know you..." face. But all it took was a banana for him to warm up to me.

As far as gluten is concerned...didn't even miss it. There are some great substitutes out there and I seriously didn't notice a difference. We went to a gluten-free bakery/restaurant and I had one of the best wraps I've ever tasted! We also made some killer pumpkin pancakes:

Sis busted out the fancy china and goblets!

We had brussel sprouts, turkey and stuffing, acorn squash, cranberry sauce, and strawberry pretzel salad. And a pumpkin pie for dessert!

And this is photo evidence that my 16 month old nephew likes brussel sprouts!! That's right! Pretty sure Matt did some type of fist-pump when this happened.

The rest of the weekend we chatted...

Did some taste tests...

Posed for the camera...

Bonded with grandma...

Decorated the tree...

Ate some ashes...

and enjoyed the company! It was a great Thanksgiving! Miller and Matt were excellent hosts and chefs. And Will was my constant source of smiles and entertainment!
