Thanksgiving Family Dinner '09

So this was the first year that we were not able to be with our family for Thanksgiving :( Therefore we needed to celebrate here to help fill a little more at home. We decided to invite everyone who was going to be in town to come join us in the Java room here at our AMLI apartment complex. There ended up being about 16-18 people who showed up! Everyone brought a dish to share which lead to WAY too much food. Wait, scratch that. You can not have too much food on Thanksgiving. But it was enough for 2nds, 3rds, 4ths and multiple leftovers.

We even had two turkeys! One was a regular turkey, while the other was a spicy deep fried turkey. Both were as delicious as you would expect. There were 3 types of stuffing, green bean casserole, bread, cranberry sauce, macaroni bake, mashed potatoes, corn, salad peaches, wine and of course 2% milk.

After 2 hours of glutinous sinning we played an intense game of Apples to Apples. After that we went back for more food with what little stomach space was left. There were many casualties of the night, myself included. It was a day to remember with good times had by all!
