Blast from the Past Friday

Here we go again...remember to go to Devin's blog for more of these!

These are some family pics from Thanksgiving 2001. We were so excited that my parents, sister, and grandparents made the trip down to Houston. They stayed in a hotel because our apartment was tiny, but we cooked the entire Thanksgiving meal in my apartment. It was so much fun!

I remember stressing out about the meal and that it wouldn't turn out right because I didn't have a double oven or anything. I also remember Grammy cooking the pies ahead of time and traveling down with them.

I remember playing scrabble and watching football all crammed in our little living room. The best part was getting out my fancy new wedding china for us all to eat on! It was a great time and I have some great memories!

Here are the girls: My mom, sister Jana, my Grammy, and me!
Us kiddos with Grammy and Papa!

Love it Kara!

I remember doing virtually the same thing, except Christmas dinner, when we were newlyweds in our first tiny house....wondering where I was going to put everyone, and how on earth I was going to make food like Grandma always did!

I love the pics...so glad you are playing along with the 'remembering of days before bloggerdom'!

Ahhhh...the quiet days. Back when we could actually cook all morning and lay around and watch football all afternoon.
