12 Week Turkey

Dylan turned twelve weeks old yesterday, just in time to eat her for Thanksgiving. She lucked out though because we decided to cook duck instead.

We cooked and ate all day yesterday because that's what the pilgrims wanted us to do. Tommy made an elaborate stuffing that involved bacon and sausage (and he managed a yummy vegetarian version). My mom manned the duck and the sweet potatoes, which were emotional rollercoasters but ended up being delicioius. I did mashed regular potatoes, spinach with mushrooms and soy sauce, and a pumpkin pie. And Aaron made a checkerboard cake like his mom always makes:

Three layers of buttery goodness














We even caught a smile on film, or I suppose memory card is more correct:














My mom insisted on putting her hand in every single picture, lord knows why.

I you had played the "have to pee" card right you could have avoided jury duty indefinitely! Dylan looks adorable (and happy) in pink! That cake is something to behold.
