Thanksgiving II

January 2nd, 2010

In the middle of December Nicole and I decided we didn’t get enough turkey at thanksgiving so we decided to cook a second thanksgiving. Oddly enough on friday night Sean called us up telling us he was going to be in town on Saturday and asked us if we wanted to get together. He had perfect timing since we were going to do our second thanksgiving on saturday and since he missed out on thanksgiving it would be perfect for him to come over. We went all out for our second thanksgiving. Nicole cooked her party mashed potatoes and grandma crnkovich’s green beans. I made the turkey and stove top stuffing and I even bought a can of cranberry sauce.

Prepping the turkey. Making use of the new skills I learned at thanksgiving.

The finished bird. Doesn’t it look good.

Ross and Sean with all the food before we sat down to eat. We did a surprisingly good job on all the food that was there.

Thanksgiving

January 2nd, 2010

Thanksgiving this past year was in Dublin OH at Uncle Mark’s and Aunt Debbie’s place. It was great to see all of the crnkovich family except the new jersey crnks. We ended up taking the day off on Wednesday so we actually drove out Tuesday night. It was a long drive after work and we were exhausted when we got in but we were glad we then had all day on wednesday to hang out with the family. We even managed to sneak away for a couple of hours to go see nicole’s grandparents on her mothers side and to see Jean.
