The Greene's: A Very Packer Thanksgiving

Since we're a week away from Christmas, it's really only appropriate that we do a Thanksgiving post, right? :)

This year we hosted Thanksgiving at our house for the very first time (sort of!). My brother had to stay in Wisconsin because of a hockey tournament the day after Thanksgiving, and my cousin Daniel was going to pick up some extra hours of work while he was on break from Concordia. Steve had been busy working in Atlanta, helping to do some clean-up after their flooding and was getting just the week of Thanksgiving back at home, and since we felt there were some things that needed to get done around the house (think winterizing...), we also had made the decision to stay home for Thanskgiving. And since a frozen Tundra Thanksgiving didn't really sound like too much fun for the St. Louis crew, we had a Thanksgiving feast for the 4 us! And to say it was a feast would be an understatement! I'm not quite sure what any of us were thinking when we put together the menu, but boy did we have leftovers!

The whole day was really very relaxing. We had most of the food either cooking or ready to go before the start of the Packers game and we were able to sit and watch the game while munching on some crackers, cheese and sausage. (What'da expect! We were having a very Packer/Wisconsin Thanksgiving!)

The table is set!
