A Seymour Thanksgiving

So this past Monday was the Canadian Thanksgiving and for the first time since we have been together, the hubby and I were able to host both our families over for dinner.
 
We actually did the Sunday, as that's when the most people were able to make it. We had Dereks sisters family, his parents, my parents and siblings and their family, as well as 2 of our very close family friends over. So in total we had 3 babies/toddlers and 13 adults in our little house, it was cozy to say the least!
 
With tasty aromas circling the house and good company, no one seemed to mind the smaller socializing quarters and we had a very successful first Thanksgiving Dinner!
 
Now, on to the food, because lets face it, that's what everyone looks forward to on this holiday!
 
Our menu consisted of a large Turkey and Ham, cooked to savory perfection by my wonderful husband, mass amounts of mashed potatoes, candied carrots, stuffing, cranberry sauce, black olives and gerkins (little sweet pickles!).
 
 








 
There we go!  Pictures from Thanksgiving are up and then the next few are from the stews  I made tonight with the left over turkey! :)
