Thanksgiving Day at Dad & Kim's

This year, we decided to do a seven-course dinner again. It is so much fun. After every course, a glass of wine is passed around. Prior to taking a sip, you say something you're thankful for. It can be something simple and superficial, or something profound and sentimental. We had some good laughs . . . and tears. God is good and we have much to be thankful for. Here are some pics:

Pumpkin Nut Soup, with cream
Wonderful raspberry salad
Seasoned pear, fig, apricot & date
Crab and lobster ravioli, and spinach feta ravioli
Sorbet, to cleanse the pallet
Our entertainment
Making these Thanksgiving cookies
Oh sugar, you are the BEST!
Getting ready for decorating
Oh oven, you are taking too long
Before you know it, everyone got into it
Some of our master-pieces
I think the sugar was getting to us

Wow! What a great Thanksgiving meal! (Actually the one at your Mom's and your Dad and Kim's both look great!) Looks like some gourmet quality stuff there. :) It's always good to see what you guys are up to and you seem to have such fun adventures!

Oh yeah...and thanks for sending me the request for the "random 8 things!" It was so much fun! It's always neat to learn more about other people. :)
