Monday was Canadian Thanksgiving and we celebrated so we could give thanks for all things Canadian. Also I like to practice different Thanksgiving recipes. It's like a dry run Thanksgiving because Daryl and I are on a quest for good turkey. This year we cut up the turkey before we cooked which accomplished a fast cooking time. I also made twice baked potatoes with pumpkin which were pretty good; except I now know that I hate making twice baked potatoes and do not feel the need to every make them again. Mom and Dad were home with us, so Mom made cinnamon rolls and her famous cranberry jello concoction that we had at every Thanksgiving growing up. Truthfully I was never a huge fan of it, but I was pretty sure Daryl would love it and he did. As did Avery. She had three helpings of it. Well we love our friendly neighbor to the north and we thought of all our favorite HGTV Canadian shows. To all our beloved Canadian friends out there we hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

I loved how you included HGTV shows! Precisely! :)
Your mom had on her Chilean apron, your dad had his American flag shirt on and Emery had her Halloween shirt on for your Canadian Thanksgiving... Everyone wanted to be represented! Love your family :)
