Turkey is standard.
The ham was by special request from my DD. LOL
Both were tasty!
As usual, too much food to fit on the table.
This is the mashed potatoes, gravy, dressing & rolls.
Mom makes the BEST stuffing!
Here's trying to fit it all on the table. LOL
Includes candied yams, orange-carrot jello, cranberries, veggies, and more.
Ended up having to bring out a cardtable (back top right)
just to put out all the food. Not shown are the pies & other desserts
that were set on the card table AFTER this photo was taken. LOL
Going nutso with the camera phone.
Impromptu shot of me with my son.
Of course, my DH and step-dad about KILLED me with
all the FOOTBALL!! LOL
(Yes, also taken with my camera phone. Yes, I even sent the photo to my Seester!
No, I didn't send her a photo of the
Macy's parade on TV, I forgot to snap one.)
It was a lovely meal, great day. Of course, it was even more special since it was our 7th wedding anniversary, too! Very cool. Best of all, we took some family photos (but I can't show them now as I've got other plans for them for family members and don't want to spoil the surprise! Besides, I still have to edit them in Adobe CS2!)
The "tree decorating food fest" ALWAYS has smoked sausage, cheese balls, peanut brittle, various crackers and dips, veggies, and miscellaneous candies. ALWAYS. This is one tradition I've managed to keep and bring into my own family. It is one NOT to be missed. Add in some Christmas carols on the CD player, Cable Radio, or what have you... and you're set. (Seester, I truly hope when you put YOUR decorations up you go to the bother to make up a little "food fest" for yourself! And take pictures!)
