My Thanksgiving Meal

I am not much of a cook, but I really enjoy baking. When I saw these cupcakes I knew that I had to try to make them. I had seen the turkey legs, peas and carrots, corn, and mashed potatoes and gravy on various sites. I came up with the sweet potatoes and Tim helped create the cranberry sauce.

So here is my version of Thanksgiving food:
I made them for Abby's annual Thanksgiving lunch at PDO. The girls always dress up as Pilgrims and the boys as Indians. Last year Abby would not even wear the costume. This year she wore it and even modeled for the pictures.

Grant had a good time at the lunch. He played with all the PDO kids while I helped prepare the lunch. He tried cranberry sauce for the first time and then smeared it all over his head.

I am so thankful for Abby's PDO and the three teachers who love on her each week.
Here is a picture of all of the kids (some with their guns up):
And of course, one more picture of the cupcakes:

  2. Beth you are amazing. I always knew that you would make a wonderful mom just didn't know about the cooking thing. Your kids are very lucky indeed to have a good mom and a good dad.
