Steveson's First Thanksgiving

Prepare yourself, viewers. This is a longer one.....and it is all food. What else do you do on Thanksgiving? (Other than being thankful for your many blessings)

Good late Thanksgiving morning to you all! Josh can really cook!


Shortly after we recover from the huge breakfast, the turkey cookin' begins.


After the brine, the basting, and the baking it's done!



The man of the house carving the turkey!



HUGE Thanksgiving feast for only two people. We've got the turkey, stuffing, gravy, ham balls, potato casserole, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, and sweet rolls. Thank Heaven for freezers!


Our first Thanksgiving dinner done all by ourselves. How exciting!


Home-made pumpkin pie! Not from the can.



More dessert. The pumpkin pie, pecan pie, and turtle cake!



We even got to watch some Thanksgiving football thanks to ESPN 360.

We had so much fun this Thanksgiving! We may still be recovering from all the food even as you read this, but it was all worth it. We thank God for good health, our love, and the love of our families and friends. Happy Thanksgiving and a wonderful Christmas season to you all!

Settled in Seattle



Josh carried me over the threshold. Then he started carrying in the packages that so many nice folks sent us while we were sailing. Thanks everybody!



Our deck is surrounded in pretty trees. Difficult to see here, but the lights just past the trees are Boeing Field. A bit rare that it isn't too cloudy/foggy to see.



The end of a beautiful sunset at Pike's Public Market.



This is the view coming out of the original Starbuck's just across the street.
