Show & Tell Monday: Thanksgiving

Linking up with Becky over at From Mrs. to Mama for my first Show and Tell Monday!! (:

This week's topic of discussion is Thanksgiving!

I woke up at 5:30 on Thursday to go to work to open right before 7. I got to watch the sun rise as I was driving to work; it was beautiful purple & pink. It was so quiet and boring at work. There were only three outs, and I barely saw any of our guests.

I had some time to take a few pictures of our Thanksgiving tree (more about the tree in a post soon!).

I only worked until 12:30 so that I could get ready to go to my grandparents' house for lunch/dinner with my dad's side of the family. It was the first Thanksgiving with a baby {my eight month old cousin} since I was a baby! He is so adorable; he was crawling all over & even walked a few steps from his mom to my mom!

The meal {not sure if it was lunch or dinner?} was amazing as always. Turkey, crudites, green bean casserole, garlic mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, kale salad, sweet potato souffle, key lime pie, pumpkin pie, apple cranberry pie, chocolate chip oatmeal bars, Malt Whopper Pudding cookies, and other foods I cannot remember were feasted on.

Here's a picture of the sweet potato souffle that my aunt made. This photo does not do it justice. It was amazing!! I need to get the recipe. I don't even like sweet potatoes, but it kind of tastes like pumpkin pie and it is amazing!

I didn't have my camera with me while we were at my grandparents' -- well actually I was too lazy to go upstairs and get it -- so the only pictures I have are from my iPhone and will be shared on Saturday since they're some Instagram pictures! (:
