Our First Thanksgiving on Our Way Too!

November 24, 2011

Happy Anniversary Kim & Larry!!

(I finally have the date right...at least I was 2 days early instead of 2 days late!)

Happy Thanksgiving Family & Friends!!

I am thankful for so much in my life...

God as my Savior,

My faithful Husband & Best Friend

My Family

My Friends

My Health

& 

Our Way Too!

the vessel that will safely accompany us to live our Dream!

I could go on & on & on...

The Blessings in my life are daily & the list is long!

We slept in & woke up this morning to a quiet beautiful sunny day with our coffee in the cockpit of 

Our Way Too!

We decided to start preparations for our ~Thanksgiving Dinner~ so that we could eat early afternoon.

Menu

~Turkey~

 (an actual 'Bird' IF we could stuff it into OWT's oven!)

~Stuffing~

 (Stovetop - Hey...we can't be too fancy here!)

~Mashed Potatoes~

(Idahoan Instant-stockin' up on these babies for cruzin'! EZ & YUM)

~Gravy~

(Out of a jar-tasted just fine)

~Sweet Potatoes~

(Bake in Microwave)

~Corn~

(Whole Kernel-heat & eat)
~Rolls~
(No baking required!)

~Cranberry Sauce~

(Jellied kind...just for Dean!)

~Cherry Pie~

(No...I did not bake it myself...but it was warm when I bought it!)

Because this was a moving week we really did keep it simple & easy. But we were able to stuff (just barely) a 12 pound Turkey Bird into the galley oven!

The Bird is almost done!!

I have decided we will shoot for a 10 pound next time! Dean thought he was gonna have to beat the bird down to fit it in there! 

We enjoyed a blessed, wonderful, relaxing day, cooking together...

Carving the Turkey!

Husband & Wife...

A Toast to our 1st Thanksgiving aboard Our Way Too!

Would you believe we were sooooooo full??!! We even forgot to nuke the sweet potatoes and make the stuffing!! Never even realized it til we were doing up the dishes!

 I picked the Bird clean for leftovers then walked over and joined our new marina friends...
