This year for Thanksgiving we invited all of the people we were thankful for to our Thanksgiving dinner. We had around 30 people come. It was a lot of fun to see everyone there. The food was pretty good but not nearly as good as the food we have at home! The turkey looked more like a ham than anything, and the stuffing was so saltly I couldn't even eat it. The potatoes turned out pretty good and of course the one time I make good gravy is now. The rolls were the biggest hit and they were gone first! It was fun to just hang out and it made the day of cooking worth it! Here are some pictures to show all of the fun we had. I have lots more pictures but it takes forever to load them and so this will have to do!
Of course we have us preparing the food! I got up around 8 and started the preparations! Everyone was a huge help and I know it wouldn't have gotten done without them!
A couple pictures of those that showed up! We had all of the kids eating in the hall while all of the adults were shoved into the opening room of the school!
And of course we have the finished food! We had a tossed salad, fruit salad, green beans, potates and gravy, rolls, stuffing and turkey(ham). To finish it off we had lots of pie! Pumpkin, strawberry, banana cream, and apple! I totally thought that the pie was the best part of the meal!
I can't wait until next Thanksgiving where I will be home and the food will taste right and I can help make the whole meal!

This looks so yummy! I'm so impressed you were able to cook for so many people without having everything you were used to cooking with. I'm certainly not ready to make the entire Thanksgiving meal!
