For the past four years Bill and I have hosted an event called The Mid Summer Night's Thanksgiving Dinner. The idea was born when we discussed how sad it was that we only yummy Thanksgiving/Christmas food once a year! So why not have a huge fest in the heat of summer and gorge ourselves on all the fixins?
Bill and I always provide the turkey and the ham and everyone else pitches in with the sides. We had mashed potatoes and gravy,corn, green bean casserole, sweet potato souffle, homemade dinner rolls, cranberry sauce, salads and pies.....oh the pies......they were so good.
Phoebi enjoyed her ham bone out in the backyard!
We still love having the new deck and all the entertaining space it provides!
By the end of the evening, the kiddos were pooped so we popped them down to watch 101 Dalmatians (the old school cartoon one....the new one with real people weirds me out....)
Who am I kidding? We were all pooped! So we snuggled up for a movie too! As always, it was great to have the house full of friends and yummy food :)
