Thanksgiving was wonderful this year. It was a day packed with adventure and lots of food. The adventure began with deep frying a turkey to a beautiful golden brown (ok a little dark brown). After thirty minutes of heating up the grease, then after another fifty minutes cook time – the turkey was great.  Lunch included fried oreos, fried asparagus, fried olives, fried onion rings, fried pickles, and squash casserole.

Then after lunch was our rocket competition. Three teams constructed rocket made from two liter bottles and were judged based on style, hang time, and height.  All three rockets fell apart on their first or second launch and eventually were just the bottle itself – which was just as fun.

We concluded the day playing wii Mario Brothers and just hanging out.  Man am I tired.
