The Rogers Family Turkey Smackdown

Much of the Rogers Family came over today for a belated Thanksgiving experience.  Even Uncle Jo was able to come down from Marquette for the festivities.

I was up early (ok, not any earlier than normal, but it is still considered pre-dawn in most civilizations) and made the pumpkin pie, Aunt Mary's cran-raspberry yumminess, and the green bean casserole.  By 8:30 am I was finished and relinquished control of the kitchen to the Bird Artist.  Wow!  Did he do a fantastic job as usual!  We had a great time visiting, and eating, eating, eating.  The cousins had a fun time playing downstairs afterwards (memories of the downstairs play at the Naperville Baleikos!!!!).  It was a great afternoon.  We are very blessed.
