Thanksgiving Celebration

Here we all our celebrating Thanksgiving at our Clubhouse!
It's the 2nd annual event where the Arakaki's, Ly's, Watkin's & Bui's celebrate all together! The family has gotten so large that we started renting out the clubhouse. It's nice that we can all come together and give Thanks during this time instead of splitting up the family by going here and there. So much fun! Thanks to the Watkins for coming all the way from Hanford! What a special treat to be able to share this special day with you and the rest of the family!

There goes Binh putting the 1st turkey in the fryer. It's so yummy with his special rub and fried! Super moist and super fast! He fried a total of 3 turkeys!

Dad Watkin's carving the turkeys for the big feast!

All the cousins together before the eating begins, Theodore, Elizabeth, Alexis, Alyssa and Makayla.

Three full tables.....all family is together! Too many names to mention but here we all are with our plates piled high!

A few shots of the buffet line. I missed the table with all the chaffing dishes that had the carved turkey, ham, mash potatoes and etc. etc. But here's the home made rolls by Aunt Judy, stuffing by Jennie and salad from Costco. And then the big yummy, yummy dessert table. All sorts of good stuff here! What a feast! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! So much fun! Can't wait until the 3rd annual next year!
