Daniel and I had bought a 21 pound turkey when they were super cheap (around thanksgiving) and planned to cook it for Logan's family birthday dinner (we haven't thrown an kiddie party yet* cause he still gets overstimulated) *but we're gonna try next year!
Anyway, couple of days before his birthday dinner, we were really getting nervous about cooking this huge turkey all by ourselves...
But we found a recipe online on Food Network and followed instructions.
Our church time is at 10am, and the birthday dinner was at 5pm, So we put it in the oven (after soaking it in the brine, and stufing it with yummyness!) and then left for church.
As soon as we came home from church, we took it out to baste it!
halfway done, and lookin good!
... done, and super delish!

This is a very special present, which Logan loves just as much as we thought he would!
In an earlier post, I showed Logan in a red spandex blanket during his Therapy session. Now he has one for himself at home!! It's a huge comfort to him!
.... and of course, Aiden thinks it's a super hero cape!!
Aiden kept sticking his finger in the frosting!!
So,.... it came time to light the candle and sing "Happy Birthday." Well we could not find our matches anywhere! So Julie and Daniel "cooked up" the idea to turn on the stove and place a paper towel on it to make fire!... and it worked!!
