Our Thanksgiving Gift!




So at the end of the thanksgiving dinner my mom (who is in charge of Thanksgiving every year) gave us all these amazing cook books! These are the coolest thing ever. My dad comes form a family of 9 siblings and one did pass away when she was 15 but every one else is living and has several children of their own, and then there are grandchildren. My mom had everyone email ALL of the recipes that they use everyday, special occasions. The point of this book was to combine all of the recipes that you use into one book! Can I tell you how much work my sister McKenzie and my mom put into this! Literally Hundreds of hours! IT'S AMAZING! I LOVE IT! They did such an awesome job and I'm so grateful that they would share it with all of us! HUGE THANKS TO MOM, MCKENZIE, AND DAD! YOU GUYS ROCK! I LOVE IT AND JUST CAN'T STOP LOOKING AT IT! ONE OF THESE DAYS I MIGHT EVEN MAKE DINNER:) THANKS GUYS. I KNOW HOW MUCH WORK YOU BOTH PUT INTO THIS!

That is so fun that your mom gave you that cook book. It sounds like your like me where you don't cook. No, I do but not consistently.

What an awesome idea! Do you think your mom would make my family recipe book? :-)

I sat and actually flipped through it page by page; it is an awesome book! Fun to talk to you and see your beautiful family on Thanksgiving.

I love recipe books. You can never have too many and the ones that mean the most are compiled by family.

My grandma made one years ago and it is a treasure!!! What a wonderful gift :)

P.S. If you've got Camille's e-mail address will you send it to me? She's gone private on her blog and I don't have a way to ask for an invite!!
