Thanksgiving 2012

Ok so I'm once again I'm behind in posting.  I'm going to try and catch up a bit before its time for Christmas posting. This year for Thanskgiving Logan and I hosted dinner for friends who like us didn't have other family to spend the holiday with. We ended up with ourselves, Pastor, Nate, and Mike who Logan works with.  It was fun to host and have a house full of people. Besides as Logan and I have learned when you can't be with your actual families, its great to be with those friends who are like family.  And we are so blessed to have many of those.
I have to say we were a bit leary after the disaster we had the last time we tried to cook without parental help, but I'm happy to say that Oscar the 5th turned out wonderful along with all the other trimmings. Including my first attempt at homeade pie crust! :) So here's some pictures of the food prep and things. My students thought it was great fun to see Mrs. Lehart in her "p.j.'s".  Hope you enjoy too! Oh and check out my awesome apron Sarah made me. It's super cute!
