Pre-Thanksgiving...tailgate style...

Our 9th annual Pre-Thanksgiving, like last year, was less traditional, and yet, just as fun and meaningful.  With Greg home from his looooong work trip (at least for a few weeks) and with a Thursday night Hokie football game against Florida State, we decided to do a tailgating version of Pre-Thanksgiving. 

The Menu

Cheese plate with sliced Honey Crisp Apples

Pumpkin Soup

Sauteed Brussel Sprouts, Asparagus and Bacon

Roasted Turkey Paninis with Cranberry Orange Chutney

Pumpkin Blondies with Pumpkin Mousse Topping
 

It was the perfect meal to gear up for the big game.  Adam and Blake pre-gammed by decorating Thanksgiving wreaths which turned out so cute. 

 

 

It might not have been a fancy Pre-Thanksgiving but it was the perfect evening with the friends we are so thankful for.  There's no hiding how thankful Adam is for Blake...
