a Thanksgiving-palooza!!

Hello all!!! Here I am blogging again. It's been sooooooooooo long, I know! Since Halloween pretty much. *sigh* I just haven't had much to say. BUT now I have Thanksgiving to blog about! :)

SO. Thanksgiving. The day of giving thanks. This was an especially fun Thanksgiving because it was Chase's and mine first Thanksgiving as an engaged couple and last Thanksgiving not being married! And his parents and brother and sister-in-law came over! So it was 10 people! The Nortons and the Gregorys! Two seperate families that would soon become one! *sigh* (CAN'T WAIT!)

So, it was me and Chase, Chases parents, Nathan and Breana, my parents and my two brothers! Nicely paired off haha! My mom took care of the Thanksgiving staple food. ie: turkey, cranberry whatever-form-it-takes-on-varying-from-year-to-year, stuffing, mashed potatoes, condiments etc. And then everyone made/bought something for the dinner! (well, I didn't...but I'm the baby...so I don't have to...right? Spoiled, I know!) The Nortons all together brought everything else... Chase made pot stickers (His specialty! It seemed a bit strange but they were the first to go. *shrug*) And I know Breana made awesome spinach dip (even with the substiution of which we do not speak) and Chase's mom Karen made her Norton salad (it is eaten at every Norton gathering I'm pretty sure. It has BACON in it!)

So, all in all it was a totally delicious, fun and full-of-family holiday!! :D
