Lucy's First Turkey Day

It was a great first Thanksgiving for Lucy!  Every year we switch between Thanksgiving in Schaumburg with the Muskovich/Wennerstrom families and in Arizona with the Blandford family.  We were lucky this year because Grandma Chris and Grandpa Bill stopped by so Lucy got to see everyone on Thanksgiving!  In keeping with tradition, we had way too much food but every bit of it was delicious although the "Rita Rice" turned out to be a clear favorite :)  We continued tradition with the annual lighting of the Muskovich Christmas lights which involves all of us taking a shot of vodka on the front lawn as the lights turn on.  (Much classier of an event than it sounds).  My dad usually turns them on and runs out to join us on the lawn but next year we have challenged him to devise a way to turn them on from the lawn so we can't wait to see what contraption he comes up with! 

It was a great Thanksgiving and of course we have so much to be thankful for this year with our little turkey here!  

We are ready to finally eat!  More stuffing for Joe!
