Our friends, The Popes had been invited to come for Thanksgiving. But drama hit our household when 2 nights before Thanksgiving our stove went out! Kaput! We had a 25 lb turkey to roast, rolls, pumpkin pies, candied yams, cookies and twice baked mashed potatoes to bake. We experimented with cooking in the tiny travel trailer oven-everything burned! We discussed the issue with the Popes and we all agreed it may be a rice and beans sort of Thanksgiving dinner.. :( However, just in time-Grady showed up Wednesday night with a used range which he had purchased off of Craigslist! Yay! The girls and I hurriedly prepped the Thanksgiving dinner for the next day!
Grady cuts the beautiful turkey- a gift from the company he is employed by
Autumn had brought a lovely salad, cranberries, little smokies and stuffing
Dishing up
Mama & Autumn catch up- it had been too long!
The Pope children took turns playing songs for us
We finished a lovely day by singing and praising the Lord together
Its was such a very special day with our very special friends
