First Thanksgiving

This year Brannon and I hosted Thanksgiving at our house for the first time! And it turned out perfect!! He and I usually sneak off to Sunset Beach every year so this was a nice change. In the picture above Brannon is injecting turkey #1! We fried two turkeys. And prepared mac and cheese, dressing, green beans, hash brown casserole, and pumpkin pie for our guests. To say we were stuffed is an understatement. I am still full today.

This is my center piece. Idea courtesy of Pinterest. Materials courtesy of the Dollar Store. I was very excited to use my china...I just love the colors! I bought Coleman, my nephew these glasses at the dollar store and he had lots of fun with them. He wore them around pretty much all day. Side note: I am obsessed with the dollar store. Wednesday was only my second experience and I was blown away. I got vases, candles, dish brushes, and a 4 pack of gum...ALL FOR A DOLLAR a piece. Crazy, right?!



Being silly!

Too precious!

After I cleaned up (which took forever since my dishwasher is broken) we decided to build a fire outside and relax. It was so nice just hanging out at home. Brannon and I do this a lot in the winter. Cheap entertainment.

Coleman and Brannon doing some honky tonk dancing!

And a few more shots of my Christmas decorations!



I added my dollar store candles onto these holders after I was done with my centerpieces.
