Thanksgiving...


We had a lovely, mellow Thanksgiving evening. Most of the family had other plans so it was Papa and Jacky at our house.
Aidan and Conner decided that they were the butlers for the evening. Here they are waiting patiently for the guests...


The guests arrive and have drinks with the help...
(Charlie LOVES Papa. Or maybe his wine?)






Digging in...




Our own little Henry VIII...











The butlers taking dessert orders...

Papa brought three pies.
3 pies + 6 people= Yum!



Then on to the after dinner entertainment. Last year's play was a lovely telling of the first Thanksgiving meal. This Thanksgiving concentrated more on the hunting....


And the plucking of the Turkey...

Then the evening ended with some storytime from the butlers...

(Well it really ended with Conner slipping off his chair mid-read and hitting his noggin on the bookshelf.)
All and all it was a lovely evening. Easy and stress free and we've already had leftovers for breakfast and lunch!
