Thanksgiving 2025

Katie hosted Thanksgiving again this year, and I'm thinking this is probably the new tradition. I love having the family over here, but it's kind of nice to be able to bring over a few side dishes, and just relax. I still plan on hosting Christmas Eve, though! 💕

Dinner included turkey and gravy, special mashed potatoes, stuffing, green bean casserole, yams and marshmallows, lefse with butter & cinnamon & sugar, cranberries, orange jello per Aaron's request, and ambrosia five cup salad. There were appetizers ... shrimp cocktail, cream cheese topped with jelly over crackers, mixed nuts, and hot apple cider with cinnamon. I made pumpkin pie, and Katie made Grandma Joyce's famous apple pie.

Plus, it was Aaron's birthday, he's now six years old! 

Nick was on call for work this year, and wasn't able to be with us. But, I also remember having to work at the hospital on holidays, so I definitely understand.

They both love dragons
