Thanksgiving 2025 - The Final Stretch

 Thursday, November 27, 2025

Picked Mom up at 1:30 and we were back to our house by 2:00. Dale chopped up the giblets while I was picking up Mom. He added them to the gravy later as he was making it. The turkey came out of the oven by 2:10. 

The sweet potato casserole went in at 2:20. The marshmallows were put on just before. It came out about a half hour later. Dale put it in the warmer. 

Made the fruit salad at 3:00. I used two cans of fruit cocktail. 

Dale did the stove top stuffing at the same time I made the fruit salad. 

Got the corn on at 3:10...

I carved the turkey. 

And we were eating by 3:25. Oh, and by the way, we also served Hawaiian King dinner rolls. 

It all came together nicely and goodness it was delicious!

Mom brought over an apple pie her friend Joanne baked for her.

Dale and I had a pumpkin pie from Lunds. I had a slice of each!

Turned out to be a great Thanksgiving. Mom expressed to us that she had a wonderful time.
