We hosted our first Thanksgiving this year and I have to say everything turned out great! I think the day started off well when we woke up to the rain. I can't remember a Thanksgiving were it was actually NOT HOT!! I prepared the Turkey the last night so all I had to do was put in the oven this morning, make a side or two, and a pie. I assigned some dishes to the other family who came. But my mother-in-law and I pretty much took care of everything else. The food was fantastic and as always I had a great day with my family. Its amazing what ONE year can do... last year at this time I was pregnant and still scared from the miscarriage I had two months prior to getting pregnant with Guiliana. I still had those icky thoughts that anything could still happen (that's what happens when you work for an OB/GYN office, you hear way too many stories and see too many sad things) but, I stayed positive and now I have the most beautiful baby girl in the world. I finally have the family that I have always wanted. I may not not have my mom in my life and my dad lives in Florida but, I have an amazing husband and the best in-laws. I am so thankful today that I have the life that I do! I feel so loved! ... and super glad that I didn't screw up or dry out the Turkey!!! GOBBLE GOBBLE! LOL!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
