After that it was 12:15pm, so I had to get my Brussels sprouts ready, I was going to make with bacon, but just decided to roast with some carrots, they turned out not to bad, DD even liked them.
After everything was ready I had to straight my hair and get ready, then I curled DD's hair, her hair is like my sisters, by the time we ate, DD curls where pretty much gone....I wish I had that problem...well you know what....I don't think I do....at least I can straighten my curly hair.
We ate about 4pm, there's was 90 or so people at the Chalet we went to, very country feeling, it would have been beautiful with snow...I'm sure that's coming....=) maybe the Christmas party will be there. They had a couple speeches, and a blessing, then it was time to eat......so much food, half way through the line my plate was full...I did go back for a couple other things, and then dessert....I was so full so I had a few cookies, someone made maple sugar cookies and they where so good....I did get a piece of lemon pie, and a taste of the pumpkin.
The kids had a great time, they are getting to know the Canadian kids in Alaska, and had fun playing together, luckily the weather held off, it was nice to have the dinner early, because we got home about 7pm. We got home to fog, couldn't see the Mountain or lake....very weird feeling.
It was a very nice Thanksgiving dinner, felt like home with all the noise and everyone....thanks for making our holiday. We missed DH of course, but he was with us in our hearts....xoxoxo
