Family Gatherings

One of the many great things that come from owning a home is the opportunity to entertain. Admittedly, Adam & I lead fairly boring social lives, but we also thoroughly enjoy hosting friends and family get-togethers.In September we invited some friends over for my 25th birthday for cards. It was fun (maybe too much fun for Adam, haha) to sit in real chairs around our crummy table instead of hanging out on the floor around our tiny coffee table! A few days later, my family came down from Columbus (Rachel came down from her apartment upstairs), and we had a good time eating pasta and cheesecake together.

These 2 events were child's play compared to what was looming around the corner in November.
We decided to host both our families for Thanksgiving!! Let me just say that having 2 kitchens is a major plus. Adam did "ruin Thanksgiving" with his rolls...., Dad was fairly certain we would be serving raw turkey, and Cyrus failed to peel the apples for his apple pie, but all-in-all, Rachel & I pulled off a perfect Thanksgiving with fully-cooked turkey and all the fixin's. Beginners luck? Maybe, but I think not.
