We Made Stuffing Cupcakes!

Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours. I hope you spent today with family or friends, laughing and reminsicing about fun adventures and memories.

The best gift was that my husband made it home from his business trip to Saudi Arabia with one hour to spare before dinner. We're reading 'Parenting' Magazine. Note our 'Team Baby Girl or Boy' shirts. =)

My sister-in-law and I baked up a storm - portabella mushroom lasagna (recipe here), mashed potatoes, two kinds of vegetarian faux-loaf, homemade rolls, and an amazing decadent butterscotch butterscotch dessert (recipe here).

We didn't go hungry, that's for sure!

We made cupcakes out of our stuffing. They were perfectly sized for perfectly filling carb loading.

But of course, the real show stopper was the 'Guess the Baby Sex' cupcakes. You'll be in suspense for just one more day and then we're telling the world what's kicking up a storm in my belly.

Of course, no family gathering would be complete without the original grandchildren, Samantha and Toby.

Look how big Toby has gotten! Our little puppy has grown into a big 8 month old. Remember how little Toby was when Erik first got him?

I hope that you had an equally fantastic Thanksgiving. Stay tuned tomorrow for the Bramble Bump announcement.
