Y'all know I LOVE a theme and as my kids have gotten older and moved away from themed birthday parties I've turned themed birthday dinners into our family tradition. Sometimes the theme revolves around the meal, sometimes around something they love and sometimes it's just FUN.
This year when discussing Luke's birthday dinner he said his one and only request was smoked turkey. As he repeatedly said smoked turkey someone said "what about smoking turkeys?" and thus, a theme was born. The plan was to have his dinner a couple of days after his actual birthday, but then schedules opened up and we ended up bumping it to the day before his birthday and so Amazon Prime and I got to work STAT.
