Turkey, Throwing and Toasting

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!!  Let's get started with what I wore:


This is a multicolored dress by To The Max. It's mostly burgundy, with brown and forest green trim.


I wore a brown velour cami with ivory lace underneath. I also chose my brown and green statement necklace.


Here is a picture of the feast. We went out to Luke and Ashley's house, and Ashley made turkey, ham, green bean casserole, potatoes, sweet potatoes, stuffing, rolls, and had meatballs, spanokopita, and cheese balls for appetizers.


First on the agenda - saying hello to the animals - at least those who weren't dogs, who were running everywhere in glee.


Here are all the chickens - they seem to be doing just fine.


Here is the hen's lord and master, King Richard the rooster.


He is BFFs with Ruger the Flemish Giant bunny. Ruger is the replacement of the late Boudreau.





Luke set up an archery range and a knife throwing wall made of hay bales.


Here goes Doc - he did very well with both the knives and the archery.


Here I go, in my dress. As you can see, I wore burgundy lace tights and my BCBG black suede boots.





After a bit of practice, I was able to stick 5 out of 6 knives. There was one with tape around the handle that I couldn't quite get the right balance for.




Luke had a new fence put in, so he took the wood from the old one and combined with a renter's old fridge, made an outdoor bar.



We all toasted Luke's latest wonderful professional accomplishment. And I am not talking about the bar, I am referring to his career as an attorney.





Our shots were vodka and Frangelico. Then you take a lemon wedge and coat it with granulated sugar. You down the shot and then suck the lemon. It ends up tasting like chocolate cake.


So let's link !!!
