Thanksgiving was a little less conventional than usual. We didn't go to Grandma's house. We weren't surrounded by extended family and lots of commotion. But we were surrounded by our cozy little family and lots of love.
It had snowed a couple days before Thanksgiving. Ken was stuck at work the first night and wasn't able to come home. Since we live on a hill, we weren't able to get out either. So on Thanksgiving morning, Ken made the call that we would stay put. Thankfully we had a small turkey that we were able to defrost and enough potatoes and other items to put together a nice Thanksgiving dinner.

Thankful for the snow
The two big kids helped peel potatoes.
Harrison made the mulled cider.
Dad deep fried the turkey for our feast.
We gathered around our table for a simple feast and a time of giving thanks to our good God and His wonderful gifts.
