The boys right before dinner time
Adam making his delicious corn & crab chowder...it was amazing!
Ben making our gravy
My first time making rolls - thanks to my cousin Megan for the great recipe. I wasn't quite sure how to form the rolls so we all helped make different variations but they tasted yummy so I didn't care if they weren't perfectly uniform.
Finished product
Our table filled with all the food for just 5 people
Turkey & Sausage - you can never have too much meat!
The complete meal
The day after Thanksgiving the boys played some golf so Sara & I drove up to the little Danish town of Solvang - just over the hills of Santa Barbara. This was a first for both of us & we loved it!
The weather so nice nice and the town was decorated for the holidays, we couldn't have asked for a better day.

Sara & I did a little Christmas shopping & had to take a picture with the horse drawn trolley car
You can't visit a Danish town without eating some yummy Aebleskivers!
That afternoon we all relaxed in the hot tub - Adam & Ben showing off their "Vogue" moves for the camera

Wow, it's a Martha Stewart Thanksgiving, Cali-Style! Most impressive, especially the rolls! Well done.
Wow, I am super jealous. That is like my dream food weekend, the best of both countries.
Sounds like you had a good time and didn't have to go hungry. Solveng is one of the places we have wanted to visit but we haven't made it yet - it looks like a fun place to visit. We are looking forward to seeing you at Christmas unless you not travelable.
You are so cute- and look so good for being 25 weeks pregnant! Sounds like you had a great Thanksgiving!
Hey, I don't see much of a belly bump yet. It's a cute little bump though. I've been to Solvang and I loved it, I'm jealous of that nice weather.
The food looks so yummy! You look so cute pregnant, I hope you are feeling good. I'm glad you had a great Thanksgiving!
Your pictures are awesome! I love that we married such fun boys.
I just made cranberry salsa and dixie salad for dinner. Yum! Thanks for such a fun weekend...I didn't want to come back!

Your meal looked so yummy! Now I know who is going to cook our Christmas Eve dinner :) I also cannot see a baby bump maybe I will be able to see it in person in 20 days!

Your homemade rolls look so yummy! And your cute prego belly looks even yummier! You are DARLING Melissa!
That's a hot tub? Not a fountain at the mission?
