My First Thanksgiving Dinner

Our table is set

I hope everyone enjoyed thier Thanksgiving.  Ours was a success! This was our 1st Thanksgiving in our new home.  My family usually spends Thanksgiving at my parents house, but since they recently sold thier house Eric and I decided to take over. My whole family was there and we really enjoyed having everyone at our house. We set the table with gold chargers (Michaels) 2.99 with 40% coupon... my mom already had 8 so I only had to purchase 2 more :) I finally got to use my Italian Countryside china that I recieved for my wedding 6 years ago... I found cream napkins with gold embroidery at homegoods for 6$ and wrapped them with various napkin rings... mom gave me about 5 and I found some at homegoods and pier one for about $1.50.  I added a few tea lights in gold votives that I got at Target for .99.

almost ready...

I enjoyed cooking for my family. I made my own "stuffing bread" in my bread machine.. cut it up into cubes and voila! I recommmend baking your own bread to prepare stuffing... it turned out amazing!
