Thanksgiving at the Bowmans

We had Barry's parents over for Thanksgiving this year. They traveled from Eugene for the day. Dad's sister Deanna came over too. I enjoyed making our table look extra fancy with the green and gold plates, gold plated utensils, and name cards.
Here is my plate setting and name card.
Rhiannon looking pretty.
Dave and Racer enjoying some story telling. Barry is getting some snacks from the table.
The gang in the kitchen cooking all the last minute dishes.
Looking into the living room all decorated for Christmas. Barry and I did a lot of cleaning and decorating for the special day.

Tiffany and Adam cooked this turkey cajun style with cranberry and sausage stuffing. It turned out really yummy.

This turkey was cooked the old fashioned way. Rubbed with butter and stuffed with stuffing. It tasted good too.

Dad is working on the gravy which turned out looking really weird because of all the butter drippings. But, it tasted pretty good.

Dave Lee and Racer hanging out waiting for the feast to begin.

The Christmas tree all decorated for the season. Everyone enjoyed the great food and great company. My next post will be Thanksgiving in Eugene at the Lees.
