Friendsgiving #13

We were a little worried that year Friendgiving was going to be extra interesting with the high chance of rain, but we got lucky and things worked out!  It's hard to fit almost 50 people in a spacious house and ours is anything but!  Crisis averted, everything worked out as planned and even though it was cold (which it always is) it was more bearable than past years.  Mike brewed 3 different beers this year which included the usual Pumpkin Pie Ale, but added a new fan favorite of Campfire Stout and a crowd pleasing Pale Ale. Three birds and a ham later, everyone showed up with their incredibly delicious appetizers, side dishes and desserts.  I cannot believe how much food we ended up with this year!  Overly full plates of side dishes before you even got to room two of food.  As usual it came and went way too quickly but I think a good time was had by all :)  Until next year Friendsgiving...

Ready and waiting for friends

Beer fridge was full so Mike had keg of sparkling water outside :)

Yum (some) appetizers! 

Hooray Friendsgiving!

Pie face!
