What's for din din?

We had an early Thanksgiving Dinner last night...it was so very yummy! The house smelled just like Thanksgiving Day...the table was set real pretty...just a fun thing to do at the beginning of October! Jim tried a new recipe for the turkey and it was absolutely positively delicious! I made stuffing, mashed potatoes and  special cauliflower that my family loves and of course we had rolls that tasted homemade. I can't take the credit for them though as they came from good ol' Safeway! My mom was quite certain they were homemade! Brownies and ice cream for dessert...so we all had very full bellies by the nights end!

So delicious!!! 
Jim is now the turkey guy in this house...ya should
never do something so over the top and think you
won't be in charge of that from then on...Right???

My mom will be in Mexico for Thanksgiving so it was nice to start celebrating
fall festivities with her. I just can't
begin to say how much I enjoy having my mom live so close to us.


 Sweet Saylah Grace was over to spend the night so she
kept us laughing during dinner. She's almost 11 months old and
just brings so much joy and happiness to our family when she's here.

We ended the evening by
playing a game of Scattergories...too much fun! Loved it!

We are a family of THANKFUL HEARTS!

What's for din din???


I don't know how many of you hear this phrase...I'm sure just as much or more than I do! It never matters how busy the day or what exactly is going on, I still hear the phrase or get the phrase in a text regarding what's for dinner! Sometimes I have no idea and other days it  comes together so easily! Thought I would share some of our favorite meals from time to time and would love if you would leave comments as to what your family favorite for din din is!!! If you are unable to leave a comment on my blog, you can leave it on my facebook! :) I'm not sure why people are having trouble leaving comments on my blog, so I will be checking into that! Our pantry door has a cool vinyl chalkboard on it so sometimes I surprise my family and they don't even have to ask "What's for din din?"  They just look at the board! :) Usually though I will admit I don't have it written on the board! I must like to hear the question!!!! :)

Jim made the ribs and I made the baked mac 'n cheese. I tried a new to me recipe and it was YUMMO!!!

I heart these 2!!!! My favorite part of family din din!!!
Lauren & Natalie

Another family favorite is Chicken Taco's!!!

More often than not when I ask my peeps what they want for din, the reply is Chicken Taco's! YUM!

Of course even better with fresh maters from Grampa Al's garden!

Again, let me know what your fav's are! The other most requested dinner around the Craft household is Chicken Fettuccine made by Jim! It is out of this world! It actually deserves a post all it's own!!!!
