First Thanksgiving



We hosted Thanksgiving this year, and got to put our new kitchen to the test. We learned that convection ovens cook turkeys very very fast. Everything turned out great and we enjoyed sharing the meal with my dad and my sister's family on our new dining room table.
Richard keeps working on the house- he painted and replaced the hallway closet doors and is working on Owen's door. Owen helped him replace the front light. My dad is helping paint and prepare the nursery- we'll be needing that in about 4 weeks. The fireplace insert has been installed and the last step there is for us to tile the surround... maybe a project for 2009. In the meantime, we've been enjoying warm fires at night.
