Nancy wrote such a beautiful entry that there is little left to say, so I'll just repeat that it was a wonderful day full of family, food and fun...and add some photos (scroll down to read Nancy's post). Nancy outdid herself with the baking she does every year...three or four pies, homemade breads, her famous pecan rolls and, of course, her turnip. Dave made his famous cole slaw, Andi brought a beautiful relish t
ray, and Mom's creamed onions are now part of the family tradition...always so good. Wendy, Rob and the "Lawson boys" mashed 10 pounds of potatos, Hank and Taka made pumpkin pie, and Tomo's asparagus was "oishii" (delicious). Kristen and Taka made candied apples to put at each place. The only thing left for me to make was the turkey!
As Nancy said, we all have so much to be thankful for. We hope that everyone reading this had a healthy and Happy Thanksgiving!
