Yesterday was Thanksgiving. We hosted the dinner and I cooked a turkey by myself! Thankfully I had some help from Facebook when I couldn't locate the giblet bag. We had kind of smelled some plastic and my husband was trying to blame it on my oven bag. No, no. It would be the giblet bag that was still in the turkey. Luckily the bird had only been in the oven for 20 minutes and we were able to fish out the bag before a total catastrophe occurred.
We had a small gathering. My husband's aunt and one of her daughters attended, along with her SIL and grandson. Her son's daughter also attended. And the husband's uncle too. We had a ton of food and it turned out ok. Thankfully I bought a small turkey, so I don't have much for leftovers.
In other news...I got to help shoot a wedding earlier this month and that was my first real test of shooting in manual mode. My pictures came out better than I expected and everyone was pleased. That's a good feeling!
Last weekend I got to enjoy the perks of working with photographers and was able to get my pictures taken for our Christmas card this year. I edited the pics and designed my own Christmas card, so I am pretty excited to send them out this year. Here is just one of the pics from the shoot...I may share the Christmas one later. I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving!
