Thanksgiving Night...

So I went slightly picture-happy on Thanksgiving night with my step-dad's digital camera, and took a bunch of photos of our small little soiree:

Me and Mom: Isn't she the cutest?!

Oz, aka: kitty-pants, aka: orange, aka: the cutest cat in the world: my cat. Who my parents stole from me 4 years ago.

Me and my grandpa.

Our sideways dinner table. Tilt your head to the right to get the full effect... because apparently I'm not very computer saavy quite yet.

A slightly different view...

My sweetie-pie puppy: Bruiser. I bought him for my parents right before I left for college 7 years ago. Eeeew. 7 years ago. That's scary... lol

I tried to take a picture of my cat and I together... but umm... well, I didn't suceed as you can tell... so you just get to look at my mug again.

My grandma and I: she's the cutest too! We had to take about 5 pictures together before one turned out that she liked. She claims that the camera doesn't like her. I disagree.

All in all, we had a grand total of 5 of us sharing a Thanksgiving meal this year which has actually happened in years past. We have a small little family, but we like it that way. Sometimes the others (cousins) show up, but that's dependent upon whether or not other family members of thiers are hosting a meal as well. So, it's really hit or miss on big holidays for us, but as you can tell, no matter what happens, we manage to have a great time with or without a house-full.

Since we did have a small bunch this year, mom decided to go gourmet on us, and try a few more time consuming dishes like a garlic-onion turkey, italian mashed potatoes, homemade cranberries, and pesto-rolls. mmmm-MMM! We were all very spoiled this year, but no matter what still concured that the traditional basted turkey still reigns supreme.

So how did everyone else's Thanksgiving go?

Oh and by the way..."Christmas tree cutting-down debacle of 2005" story to come soon...
