Our First Thanksgiving in Dublin


This year we hosted Thanksgiving in our new home in Dublin. Both parents, grandparents, sisters, brother-in-law and friend made up a great lunch/dinner of 12. Brett made turkey for the first time and it was excellent. He followed the directions for cooking time and still came up an hour short but it was complete perfection. Unfortunately, in that hour we lost the dinner rolls and a hotline call to 1-800-butterball was made to save the gravy. Many bottles of wine laters, we all sat down for a fancy feast around 2:30pm. Thanks to everyone who made it possible:

Mama Nuckols for her Fatoush
Mama Patel for her Indian potatoes and Gulab Jambu
Sister Patel for her Pumpkin and Pecan Pies
Grandma Nuckols for her Sweet Potatoes and Cranberry Sauce
Papa Nuckols for the red and white wine selection

It was a great time, but next year, can't wait to be the one bringing the side dish!
