Bauer Thanksgiving/Christmas

Saturday of the Thanksgiving weekend is the traditional time to gather the extended Bauer family for our Christmas together.  This year mom and dad hosted the gathering at the farm and 39 family members enjoyed the time together.  After a yummy dinner of smoked turkey, potatoes, stuffing, noodles, vegetables, relishes, and salads the great grandchildren opened their Christmas gifts.  Ice cream roll is the traditional dessert and it was enjoyed by all!
