Yesterday I…
Did not take any photos.
Made Angela’s “This Ain’t Grandma’s Sweet Potato Casserole” (which I really wish I’d taken a photo of).
Got to see half of my extended family for the first time in months.
Ate two helpings of said sweet potatoes, along with green bean casserole, salad, mashed potatoes, corn, cheesy broccoli and a dinner roll.
Saved room for a massive dessert that included chocolates, apple pie, carrot cake, butter cookies, dough balls, pecan pie and chocolate-covered pretzels.
Gave thanks for the many wonderful family, friends and blends God blesses me with each and every day.
Ate more dessert.
And went to bed with a very large, sweet food baby.
Today I…
Will take photos of my food (starting with this breakfast).
Will make Angela’s sweet potatoes again.
Will hopefully eat more vegetables.
Will get to see many of my high school classmates for the first time in months.
Will continue to give thanks for those wonderful people.
And will probably eat much more dessert at Thanksgiving Part II.
Hope your Thanksgiving was as wonderful as mine was!
PS- It’s officially the start of the holiday season!!
What was the highlight of your Thanksgiving?
What are you most looking forward to this holiday season?

Love that photos of us! Glad you have a fabulous Thanksgiving food baby :) Love your new header too!
The dresses you guys are wearing in the first photo are amazing! So cute...do you happen to know who they're by? Is that a bow on the front of yours? LOVE!
I took photos yesterday, but they were after 2 glasses of wine and I'm looking at them this morning thinking WTF? :-) I don't blame you for not taking any, it's a time to cherish with family.
I tend to not take photos on holidays either. I prefer to just enjoy the food and people in the moment. :)
It sounds like you had an awesome Thanksgiving. Have fun seeing your friends today!
i think that NOT having any photos might just speak to how good of a time you had, and how lovely a job you did of being present during your thanksgiving?! right? so, good job and i'm so glad you had an enjoyable t-giving.My thanksgiving was great, but all your food sounds AMAZING right now and i kind of wish i could go back in time and re-eat all of the lovely feast-ness :)
I am actually glad I was able to capture pics of my thanksgiving! We had lots of fun with my baby cousin
A highlight was having a boy ask for my number while perusing the Whole Foods salad bar. Even though I didn't give it to him!
I didn't take many pictures either... sometimes it's just not the time. But glad you had a great Thanksgiving!!! I can't wait to put up the Christmas tree and watch Christmas movies like The Holiday!
My highlight was just being with my family! I'm looking forward to moving to Cincinnati for 6 months but before that getting to spend a couple weeks at home with my family first
