We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year with great friends and family. We ended up going to Ritzville and rented the local golf course so we could celebrate with lots of people. In attendance we had Kellen’s Mom Elaine, Kellen’s dad Tooter, Kellen’s sister Hillary, Our niece Brooklynn, Tanner Hillary’s Boyfriend, Ricks mom Rita, Ricks dad John, all of us girls ( Brooke, Courtney, Brandy, Cassie) and of course Kellen and Kenadie. We had a couple more on our guest list that weren’t able to make it because of the down pour of snow that happen to “rain” on our parade. Making sure all of the food was hot from my mom’s house to the golf course was a bit of challenge but we made it. Besides the mashed potatoes trying to catch the house on fire the food was pretty good! Ok so it was probably my / my mom’s fault that we tried to catch the house on fire (for me again but that’s a story for another day) we put the food in aluminum pans so we could heat them/ keep them warm in the oven. Well the butter on top melted all over the inside of the stove and the potatoes decided to act like a volcano and erupt everywhere catching on fire in the oven. Needless to say the house was FILLED with smoke and the fire alarm kept going off, but nothing was burnt and everything tasted pretty good! We didn’t quite make it up for black Friday shopping like we hoped because we stayed up way to late playing games and having fun. However we managed to make it up to Spokane the next day before all the sales were over. We scored a couple of movies and knocked out a bit of Christmas shopping. Personally I think Black Friday has truly sucked the last couple of years!!!
