For the first time we stayed in Indiana for Thanksgiving. GaGa is having back surgery this week and her pain was too much for her to travel. We offered to cook dinner and take to their house. Gramma Pat was in town and helped me cook the feast. Everything turned out wonderful! We had a turkey, glazed ham, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes (GaGa did make these like Grandma Beasley), corn casserole, stuffing, almond green beans, and homemade bread. I also made Aunt Mirna's cranberry relish but it never made it to the table! We also had a homemade cheesecake, as well as store-bought pecan pie and Patti LaBelle's sweet potato pie.
Papaw and Amanda, Dalton, and Hoyt also joined us. Camden and Hoyt had never had time just the two of them and they played soooo well together. They got on the computer for the last 1/2 hour of the day and Hoyt just sat nicely and watched his big cousin play. He was darling.
His chubby hands on his knees and a sweet grin on his face were too much!
It was a very nice day and we loved not having the long drive (although we really missed seeing everyone)!
