Thanksgiving Hosted by the Kirkbride's
Well, after 2 days of marinating and a total of 8 other dishes, it all turned out perfectly. Except I was too tired to actually taste much of the meal. Thank God for left-overs though. So we started with a 12lb. bird, a juicy onion and celery marinade in the bag with stuffing, a spiced home-made cranberry sauce, garlic roasted mashed potatoes, home-made gravy, a green bean and carrot salad, crescent roles, flija (Kosovar pie-like dish), and fresh apple crisp pie. Ummmm.
We had Pranvera's close friends from NY stay with us for a couple nights and her Kosovar family friends also joined us as well. Adi had a 3 year old playmate and we were able to eat in peace. Very nice. Wonderful company, smells, and warmth on this unseasonally warm holiday.
We also got out and about and took Adi to see the train exhibit at the Botanical Gardens. He couldn't get enough of it.

Thanksgiving Lunch at Daycare & Night at the Eastern Shore
We had a wonderful visit with Adi and his friends this week at the daycare center for a Thanksgiving meal. Of course it was mostly about him showing off his toys to his parents and getting an extra piece of pie with Daddy.
And last week our dear friends Andrew, Emily and baby Anderson invited us out for a night at their cabin on the water. As you can see it was a picture perfect 24 hours of big baby with little baby (he kept kissing him) and a chance for us grown ups to all catch up with each other enjoy the kids. The new parents are well into their grove and we have a great BBQ feast along with a full morning brunch. The walk around the property in the morning was a wonderful way to enjoy our coffee!
