This year for Thanksgiving my roommate Kimberly and I decided that it would be fun to take on the task of hosting the Thanksgiving meal. Neither of us had ever really done a turkey by ourselves before and I was excited for this opportunity; I feel so grown up! We invited just a few friends over, there were seven of us total, and it was a good sized group for our first Thanksgiving. We gave everyone a food assignment and they all did an
amazing job! Aside from everyone running late, Thanksgiving went off without a hitch! Surprisingly, it wasn't even stressful, we gave ourselves plenty of time to get everything ready and we cleaned up as we went along and by the time 2:00 came around all we had to do was carve the turkey. I think that Kimberly and I did a great job on our first turkey. While we ate we went around the table and expressed what we were thankful
for, I am so thankful for my family and the many wonderful people that surround me in my lif
e! I am truly blessed! After dinner we loaded the dishwasher and put food away and then we sat around talking until the subject of 'the worm' (a dance move) came up, our friend Ally gave us all a wonderful demonstration of how to do 'the worm' which was followed by everyone taking turns trying it out-what better way to mak
e room for pie??? After eating the delicious pie we topped off the night by going to "Tangled" in 3D and can I just say
that it is a fabulous movie and I think that everyone should it!! I was laughing my head off the whole time!! I definitely missed not being with family for Thanksgiving but this was definitely the best alternative that I could have hoped for!! Thank you everyone!!!
