Turkey Day

Well, this is a little late getting posted, but i've been busy decking the halls and Christmas shopping. Not to mention Seth has become pretty needy so finding time to post has been difficult! Anyway, we had a GREAT thanksgiving! My parents came down and we all had dinner at my grandparents house in Sandy. Nick was busy studying a lot of the weekend, but it was really great to get, what felt like a break from everything; and of course to see mom and dad ") 

So during the day on Thanksgiving Seth and Daddy had a football dual. Seth's team ended up coming out ahead ... he was pretty excited about it!



Seth decided to work out a little before all the Thanksgiving food ... he really needed to do some pull ups!
Nick decided he wanted to show off his culinary skills and make a fancy Apple Pie. It was even a Paula Dean recipe. Here is the man himself doing his thing in the kitchen.
Look how fancy he made it ... honestly I barely even helped. We were all so impressed and proud of our first time pastry chef!

Yes, a fabulous Denzer Family Picture was taken before dinner. Here are a few of the "better" ones ... I looked ridiculous in every single one. 

My crazy cousin Nathan decided to bring over his Army Tank for Thanksgiving dinner. Didn't you bring one to your Thanksgiving? Anyway, we got some sweet pictures with Seth and the Tank.
Here is Grandma Wofford carving up Tom the turkey. He was having a lot of fun with the meat carver! :) (not really, just thought i'd throw that in there)
And here is the finished product of Nick fancy apple pie ... doesn't it look yummy?!
Seth was so tired after eating all that turkey and potatoes ... he was seriously knocked out!
Grandpa Larsen showed Seth his music box and was singing songs to him. There are little people dancing on the bottom and Seth thought it was pretty fun to watch them twirl around. 

Anyway, Thanksgiving was a lot of fun and we can't wait until we get to see the rest of our family for the holidays.

What a sweet and happy sound to hear a baby laugh! I love it. I also am super impressed with Nick's culinary designs...Nick, could you please show me how to make a pie like that? We were watching that TX game too, sorry your team lost Nick, I guess Seth just knew the teams better.=)

1. Glad to see Seth is already working on the pull-ups, he is really setting a great pattern of fitness for the rest of his life.
2. Nick's pie looks amazing, awesome job! I am also excited that a Paula Deen recipe was selected!
3. I totally forgot my army tank for Thanksgiving this year. I knew we were missing something, but I couldn't put my finger on it until now...I really let the family down.
4. Seth looks cute in his Texas shirt :) Glad he could wear it for a win!
5. You don't look ridiculous!
