I just wanted to put a little post out here to let you know that the casserole was quite yummy. It was so good, my sister was very glad that we cooked it in her casserole dish so we had to leave it there. So if you need or want to make a quite yummy hashbrown casserole, I’d recommend checking this one out.

Thanksgiving may not feel like its here yet, but it is. Well atleast for us. Every year before the 4th Thursday of November (traditionally Thanksgiving day). Our local group of friends usually gets together and celebrates thanksgiving. We have pretty much what you would expect to have in a normal thanksgiving. Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, etc, this year was no different. Instead of doing our turkey this year in an oven, like we have for year, one of our friends mentioned that her dad had a deep fryer for turkeys if we wanted to try it. So after very little persuading, we decided to give it a try.
Here are a few pictures of the setup. Big fryer, propane tank, a place for Don to hide and stay in the sun but out of the wind.
After cooking a 20lb turkey for 60minutes we took it out of the fryer, and this was the result. 
Not too bad if I do say so myself, since this was our first attempt at frying a turkey. While I sat out in the cold waiting to make sure the turkey didn’t blowup or anything like that, Corrine was inside making soup and making the tables look pretty. Here are a few pictures of the house. 
And it wouldn’t be a cold day at our place with out a fire. 
After everyone arrived ate a good meal we went down by the fire to play games, and just have a good time. Here some pictures of 22 people in our basement around fireplace.

We had a fun Sunday, after church and lunch, we just relaxed and hung around the house, and then John brought over My Fair Lady. I don’t think we have seen the whole thing before, but its one of those movies that everyone needs to see, so we did. It was a good show. It was quite loverly.

We went to an awesome Miami Hockey Game tonight. Miami played Ferris State, and it was a hard fought battle, and after regulation the game was tied, so it went to a 5 minute sudden death overtime. And since we still couldn’t score during that, the game went to a shootout. It was an exciting way to end the game. Each team gets 3 penalty shots to score, adn whoever has the most goals after that wins. Well they kinda win, I think it actually goes down in the books as a tie, but it is quite exciting to watch a shoot out.
When we went to the Miami vs. OSU game at the beginning of the season, there was also a shoot out that night, and we didn’t win the shootout, but it that was still a good game.
