Thanksgiving (Bryn)

I wasn't able to go home for Thanksgiving, but I did get to spend the holiday with my boyfriend and his family in Ogden. I haven't seen his eldest brother, or his girlfriend, or his parents since I moved to Utah in August. I missed them very much, and was excited I got to see them! This morning we woke up around seven thirty, and began cooking breakfast. Quaid's mom made everyone breakfast; we had biscuits and gravy.
Originally, we were going to eat Thanksgiving "dinner" at about two, but ended up postponing dinner until five. We began cooking dinner at around ten. I was excited to help make dinner for everyone! In all, we had turkey, ham, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, stuffing, tapioca pudding, stuffed mushrooms, deviled eggs, fruit salad, jellied cranberry sauce, rolls, pumpkin pie, pecan pie, and turkey and ham gravy to top everything off. Everything turned out so deliciously.
It was so nice to be able to cook and spend time with everyone. After dinner, I helped clean up. Then, we all sat down around the fireplace with hot chocolate and watched a movie! After two movies, we went to bed, knowing we will be up very early for shopping tomorrow.
On Black Friday, I plan to begin Christmas shopping. I am also hoping to get a new iPod nano.

I hope everyone else had an awesome Thanksgiving! See you all on Monday!
