Thanksgiving Prep 2011

We hosted Thanksgiving 2011 at our house this year.  We had 11 adults, including two great grandmothers, and four children, as well as three dogs from Macon and Skittles.  It was a blast, but I needed some help getting things ready.  While Nanoo was busy chopping, slicing and dicing in Macon, GranGran was making biscuits and oyster pie in Myrtle Beach with Aunt Kelli just a few miles away making two delicious desserts.  Olivia and McIver worked on the outside, while I straightened up the house and prepared for our guests.

Our neighbors were kind enough to let Aunt Kelli and Uncle Robert spend the night next door so McIver decided he would clear their driveway.

Nanoo, Pop, Cacoo and Grandma Janet arrived Wednesday evening.  They brought Pepper (their average-sized seven-year old Australian Shepherd mix), Marley (their 18 month old Great Dane-Lab mix who weighs in at a whopping 120+ pounds) and Sam (Cacoo's newest find ... a Beagle-Basset Hound mix who is hilarious!).  My house was a dog pound!
