Thanksgiving

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and was to reach their destinations safely!  After days of wind and snow and frigid temperatures, we all were wondering if Thanksgiving was going to happen.  But it turned out to be a beautiful day down here Mauwsville. 

We had about 15 people join us for dinner from Lewistown, Great Falls and Stanford.  We were very fortunate to have the Compton family join us this year.

This year we decided to fry a turkey.  We also cooked a few hams as well.  We had quite a feast!  No one ever goes hungry on Thanksgiving!  After dinner the rest of the afternoon was spent poring through Black Friday ads and catching up on family time.  --AND eating lots of yummy pies!!  Shawn made two beautiful homemade pumpkin pies.  He used a pumpkin that he had grown in his garden! 

Thanks to everyone was able to join us this year.  We are very blessed.

Then of course the next day, Joni, Aunt Dauna, Mom and I rose early for some Black Friday shopping in Great Falls!  Roads were good, crowds were manageable, and the deals were right!  Thanks for the adventure ladies!!
