First Thanksgiving

 This year we were on our own for Thanksgiving. I wanted to make it special for Steve and Hallie, since  last year Steve spent his Thanksgiving out on patrol in Afghanistan and this is Hallie's first Thanksgiving. I have never cooked a turkey before and I was really worried it wouldn't turn out. Fortunately, it all turned out great! We enjoyed spending the entire day together and have lots of yummy food left to eat for the next week.  I am so grateful for my little family. I have a beautiful, funny intelligent daughter and a wonderful husband. I am so blessed.. I would also like to thank my mom  for helping me through my first turkey! sorry for all the phone calls ( you are always there for me and I can't express  how thankful I am to have such a wonderful mom)
