{Happy Thanksgiving}

Happy Thanksgiving from the Imhoff's! We have SO much to be thankful for here. I am so blessed to have a wonderful family, which includes two of the cutest boys I know :)

Hope everyone was able to spend the holiday with family or friends, ate WAY too much and had safe travels!

Here is a little taste of what our day looked like ...










It was a great day, with some REALLY yummy food! It was the first time Ryan and I held a dinner at our house for the holidays, so it felt like a big deal. I was able to get some tables and chairs from my dad. I created the the tablescape for 23.00 total. Ryan cooked all the meat by himself ... and.it.was.amazing! I was able to cook up some green bean casserole, corn bread stuffing & apple crip. I also picked up a pecan pie from The Upper Crust Bakery. My mom brought rolls, mashed potatoes & corn casserole. And Ryan's grandma brought over the gravy & sweet potatoes. I think everyone ate until they were uncomfortable!

Afterwards, it did take Ryan and I about 4 hours to clean up. If you remember, we don't have a dishwasher and I refused to use plastic or paper plates :) It was worth it!!

And on a side note, we have been teaching Braeden about Thanksgiving while going around and saying what we are thankful for. Ryan always starts by saying I am thankful for Braeden, Bayler, Mommy, Charlie & Tank. Then I start in and say that I am thankful for family, friends, and a warm house. Braeden ALWAYS says the same thing ... "I am thankful for my blankie, my TV and my bean bag. Well ... atleast he is thankful!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!
