Turkey Days 2

EWU's football team won nationals this year, and while out celebrating with the rest of the town we ran into Travis [pictured below] and Lauren [no picture yet]. The first raft trip I went on was actually one Mark led for them the day after their wedding in July 2009.

After rekindling college years, it was decided that dinner was in order. We had a turkey so why not a turkey dinner with all the fixings.

Travis made gravy from scratch and Lauren followed her families secret recipe for corn bread stuffing. It was the BEST stuffing I had ever had. I couldn't get enough! James brought his famous mashed potatoes, lengthy process, and we were in charge of salad, cranberry sauce and the turkey, which was too big for the sink so it had to be thawed in the bathtub.

The pups might have been even more excited about the turkey than we were.

Unfortunately for them, no matter how adorable they may be,

'No turkey for YOU!'

Travis was flew down to Salt Lake a few days later and left a note on his way through the airport.
