Just a few photos of our Thanksgiving this year.\u00a0 We had lots to celebrate and be thankful for around our table.\u00a0 Patrick, Chris’ brother, and Kelli got engaged Wednesday night:)\u00a0 How fun to celebrate with them-I think I drank enough champagne for everyone!\u00a0 Ha.\u00a0 My mom is doing well and started up Chemo again, 6 more rounds then they will do more tests.\u00a0 Keep your fingers crossed & your prayers coming for a positive reaction to the chemo.\u00a0 My Aunt, Uncle and cousins were here to visit from Chicago as well so we had 16 people over to our place this year!\u00a0 Marissa came over Wednesday to help prep the turkey- we did a brine and it was so delish and moist!<\/p>\n

If you decide to brine your turkey put it in a box so the ziploc bag stays upright and you do not have “water” leaking out of your fridge.\u00a0 This photo is before we had the leak!\u00a0 We had t0 pull a MacGyver and put cookie trays on the sides to keep it standing up straight!<\/p>\n
