Thanksgiving Day

November 24, 2022

Thanksgiving morning dawned a very nice day, and at about 10, after breakfast, Darla had all three of her daughters with her.

Relaxing after breakfast, Luke and Brenda join Darla, Ashleigh, Elyse and Jordan at the kitchen island. It seems to be a natural gathering place.

About 11:30, Uncle Mark arrived and greeted his three nieces.

About this time, the women are getting very busy with the preparation of the Thanksgiving meal. Elyse is busy preparing a tray of seasoned potatoes.

Ashleigh cooks at the stove while Elyse continues her dish.

Brenda, Elyse, and Ashleigh busily prepare food while Jeff, Marty, and I watch with growing appetite and interest.

Ashleigh continues her preparation of a large dish of mac and cheese. She adds different kinds of cheese.

Jordan takes on the setting and decoration of the table. She is folding the cloth napkins into creative shapes.
After all this work, Jordan and Ashleigh take a short break on the couch. But they didn't stay idle long!

Darla takes on the preparation of three delicious chocolate pies using some tasty chocolate that Marty had provided. One was made with a gluten-free crust. They didn't last long!

For another short break in the meal preparation, Elyse, Jordan and Ashleigh pose by the Japanese Maple tree outside. It's one of our favorite backgrounds at this time of year.

Elyse is involved in one of the last steps in preparation for the Thanksgiving feast, the making of a very nice snack tray. Note on the right the large empty turkey platter, an indication that the Thanksgiving turkey is not far behind!
