First one: Thanksgiving 2011
This is the first time we have hosted a Thanksgiving and it was super. The day started with me doing the local Turkey Trot and running my first under 30 minute 5k since high school. It was super fun though I did skip the table mid-run offering mimosas.
We had Cory's parents a fellow teacher and an international student from our school join us. I'd say it was a success. Hope this little picture of the spread keeps you salivating. We bucked the traditional eight hour turkey for the 30 minute fried turkey. It was delicious.
Since we have a mondo break for Thanksgiving we took a couple of days and visited the Baltimore Aquarium Edmund LOVED the aquarium. He walked around saying "ish" (fish) and saying 'chomp, chomp, chomp' which is the sound he makes for a shark. It was a great trip and it was fun to see Edmund so into all the animals.
The other major bonus was heading down toward "Little Italy". Cory and Edmund shared this giant bowl of ice cream while I enjoyed an enormous cannoli. And it was delicious. At the time of the picture I had eaten about a quarter of it.
