This year we celebrated Thanksgiving at the Lowry’s lakehouse, and they were kind enough to invite my parents and grandparents to join us. We all stuffed ourselves silly with the ridiculous amount of food that was there.
This is just the dessert table: apple pie, chocolate pie, four layer dessert, cranberry cream cheese salsa (aka: cranberry crack), strawberry-pretzel-jello, german chocolate cake, and my mini chocolate chip cheesecakes. And then there was the enormous feast! Two types of turkey: smoked and roasted, ham, deviled eggs, squash, corn casserole, roasted broccoli and sweet potatoes, salad…
Oh yeah. There wasn’t enough room on the main island for the stuffing, mashed potatoes, peas, green beans, and asparagus. I wasn’t kidding. We had TONS of food. Lyndsie and Sean and Logan, resting their full tummies. Papaw always needs a nap after a big meal. He is a LaPrade, after all, and we LaPrades are champion sleepers. There were a total of 6 dogs there for the weekend. Yes, including Lucy. We decided to try to bring Lucy and see if she could play nice with others. Turns out, she tried to attack the 140 pound german shepherd – rottweiler mix after he tried to drink out of “her” bowl of water. He’s pretty cute, huh. Lyndsie’s dog, Moo, is absolutely the sweetest pit-bull to have ever walked the earth. Lacie’s dog, Lollie, likes to curl up in your lap. My two moms, bonding in the kitchen. The view from the back deck. The Lowry family! (Plus Dillie, Logan’s little dog from college.) The Lowry “kids”.
Our first Thanksgiving together as Newlyweds. All together now - “Awwwww”. The Lowry girls.
My family…
…plus sweet Mamaw and Papaw.
I thought this was cute. Mr. and Mrs. Lowry.
Lacie and I looked over and saw Mamaw sitting in Papaw’s lap, and tried to catch a picture before they saw us. :)
One big, happy Lowry family.
