Sunday Snapshots: Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday of all time. It's time to spend with family and loved ones, while eating too much and enjoying company. As I have gotten older, my Thanksgiving traditions have changed. I've mentioned Thanksgiving a lot here on my blog last year, with this post here. Thanksgiving for my family has a lot of things intertwined. I think that is why I love Thanksgiving so much.

We kept our our tradition like last year and had a GVSU Friends Thanksgiving. Oh man was this bigger than last year though. This year reminded me very much of the years at my Aunt Dee's all in the living room eating wherever we could find a spot, friends laughing and having the window open because it was so warm.

Of course we had awesome food, and amazing decorations and tons of friends to help eat the 20lb turkey; that is pretty much all gone.
We had a dress code...and it was for sure not Cosby Sweaters.

Everyone was part of an awesome craft decoration for Thankful banner

This was Rachael's only job for the night and she took it very seriously.
No one can mess with her cranberry sauce.

Our awesome name tags Morgan worked so hard on.

We had all kinds of friends there. Some from Freshman year, and some new friends from this year.

How good does that look?
I'll tell you it was YUMMY!
Our chef Morgan who worked so hard all day and missed the football game to make our dinner

Tori was taking a picture while I was taking a picture...has to be one of my favorites of the night

and then there's this kid. Never play 50 States with him..ever!

Oh Heath was more excited for the stuffing than anything else.

Michelle, Brittany and Laura

Oh Admission friends + the VIP wanna be Heath

And the girls! All fancy and enjoying the night.

Thanksgiving Gang!

This weekend was a very awesome weekend. Saturday was jam packed with the Lakers Playoff Game and Thanksgiving dinner of course. With a Laker win 35-13 and an amazing dinner the weekend is complete. Now two days left till a quick break before the end of the semester.

Thanks to all my friends who came for dinner, and helped with dinner. It was a fun time! Mark your calendars next year November 19th 2011!

Also start studying friends..Thanksgiving will always have a 50 states game included!!

Until later, realize the ones around you that your Thankful for this week!
