thanksgiving

at thanksgiving last year we were wondering if dominic would show up in time to celebrate with us.  nope.  he came a few days later (although i still cooked a full thanksgiving meal for mathias & me - i love thanksgiving food).  

so this was really dominic's first thanksgiving!  and my parents were there - we had such a great time with them.  

here's what i'm thankful for this year: my inability to secure a job!  it seems crazy (and it's not easy on the finances) but i have a had a fantastic fall season hanging out with dominic & mathias - what could be better?  plus, being poor is such freedom.  who knew?  it turns out that - for me at least - it's easier when i just know i simply can't afford it.  that's it.  forget about it.  

here are the pictures...

the massive bird:
the carver and aunt leigh's super-awesome rolls:
the barrier (to keep him away from all the craziness in the kitchen right before we ate):
the classic ray-with-timer pic:
"that was pretty good..."
"...can i be excused already??!!!"
