Thanksgiving Weekend

Thanksgiving is only two days away...we will be heading to my Aunt Nancy's with the Faasse side of the family. When we were younger we would always go to see both sides of the family on Thanksgiving. It always got a little crazy. I remember Grandma Audrey always had riced potatoes and Grandma Jackie always had corn bread from Boston Market and she always bought those butters in the shape of Turkeys! I am making Paula Deen's Pumpkin Gooey Butter Cake to bring to Nancy's this year, I brought it last year and it was a big hit...highly recommended!

Thanksgiving night I always go and spend the night at Nancy's and we go to get her tree on Friday. Nancy always gets a live tree and it is HUGE. I remember one year it was just her and I that went and we were holding the tree on the roof driving it home from the Tree Lot in Cascade cause we thought we might loose it! I always feel a little like Clark Griswold when we go to get the tree! This year will be no different, I am sure the tree is big! It is a concolor which is a great tree it has soft needles and smells like a citrus fruit.



Usually there is no black Friday shopping for me....but my cousin Karly thinks there might be something out there that we should go get...we'll see how tired I am. Happy Thanksgiving!
