After spending the beautiful, sunny Thanksgiving Day at Central Park, we grew tired from our day's adventures and decided to head 'home' and enjoy a quiet, simple Thanksgiving dinner at home, from the incredible rooftop deck on our apartment!
Though the food was very simple (and bland), the atmosphere was incredible, and made it a Thanksgiving to remember!
(Note the Thanksgiving Placemat Wiggles made at preschool!)
This picture doesn't give justice to the incredible view we had! We watched the sunset over Manhattan, which was breath-taking - and the lights of the city were amazing!
I had to snap a shot of our pitiful thanksgiving 'feast' that we transported from home: turkey breast (deli style), instant mashed potatoes, store bought rolls, canned green beans and cranberry jelly, and canned sweet potato casserole with store bought pumpkin pie (not pictured). The food left much to be desired, but what it lacked in taste, it more than made up for in ambiance and atmosphere! And I will say I enjoyed spending just a few minutes in the kitchen on Thanksgiving! I didn't want to miss a moment of that rooftop view! :) As we ate, we reflected on the many, many things for which we are grateful!
More shots of our spectacular view (How I wish I could have captured them better!)
It was truly a Thanksgiving to remember, and will go down as one of my favorites of all time!
it looks so fun and yummy
