Our First Thanksgiving

This year will be our first Thanksgiving married, and sadly we are not able to go home and be with our families for the break. But we are so excited to start our own holiday traditions and spend some down time relaxing and having fun just the two of us. I'm a little nervous about having to make Thanksgiving dinner for the first time, but I'm pretty confident I can do it. Plus Brent loves to help out in the kitchen so he will definitely be contributing! We want to have everything that our families typically have at Thanksgiving dinner so we are doing it all!

• Turkey
• My dad's mashed potatoes
• His mom's sweet potatoes
• Stuffing
• Green beans
• Dinner rolls
• Sweet potato biscuits
• Cheesecake Factory pumpkin cheesecake

We are probably going to have enough food in leftovers to last us until we go home for Christmas, but that is fine with us! Brent is also going to play football Thanksgiving morning just like he would at home and I will be there cheering him on. Oh, and we can't wait to get up at 3a.m. the next morning to stand in line at BestBuy to buy our new desktop! We're hoping to get an amazing deal on an extremely fast, high performance computer! Despite the fact that we don't get to be with our families, we are so excited for this Thanksgiving.
