Thanksgiving

Dean was shocked to learn that despite this being his first Thanksgiving, he was not going to be allowed to have any turkey.

The morning started off with cinnamon rolls, while watching the Macy's Day Parade.

 Dean enjoyed his breakfast too. :)

Ryan and Steve trying to figure out how to use our new turkey deep-fryer.



Chef Ryan getting the bird ready for the fryer.

While the turkey is frying, Ryan and Dean take a timeout to watch some Thanksgiving Day football together.

 For now, Dean likes watching Daddy more than football.

Hands busy preparing the meal.

We served the meal buffet-style.

Ryan and Steve took on the task of cutting the bird.

Dean joined us at the dinner table - even if it meant he had to watch everyone else eat.
 
Two dumsticks, Cindy?!  The turkey Ryan made was so good, Cindy ended up eating an unprecedented two turkey legs!

"Get your mouth away from my drumstick, mister!"

 Yummy!

Ryan fell into a turkey coma next to the table from eating too much.

Evidently, the first turkey coma didn't cut it- Although, this time he's not acting...this is actually how he fell asleep on the couch. Ha! Ha!
