Thanksgiving 2010

Thanksgiving is always a great holiday because it involves the three F's--family, friends and food :-)  We were fortunate to have all three this year!

The day before Thanksgiving we had another couple friend over for dinner.  They have an adorable 11 month old named Lia.  She and Nadia had a great time playing and getting to know each other.






On Thanksgiving Day we headed over to my friend Jodi's house for dinner.  I made pernil (roasted pork shoulder) and cheesecake.  Without sounding too conceited both came out soooooo good.  I wish I had taken a picture but our host's husband literally started to cut up the pork the second I placed it down.  We had a really good time and Brandon ate 5 different desserts...then ate my leftovers.

Nadia's wondering if she left the oven on..
Check out Nadia's first tooth!

Nadia the peacemaker

We did some shopping for Black Friday; Saturday we stayed home; Sunday we went to church and Monday had a friend over for lunch so it was a great weekend filled with activities.  Nadia was very tired:

  1. I love that last picture! You girls look so pretty - and Nadia looks great with a tooth (:

    I'm glad we got to come over and spend time with ya'll. It was so much fun watching the girls together!
