Living overseas is often hard around holidays but we try to make the best of it and enjoy and be thankful for what we do have. We are grateful for our friends here and thankful for FaceTime to talk with our family!
We hosted Thanksgiving for the first time this year and it was a lot of fun for me! I enjoyed crafting and cooking ahead of time trying to make Thanksgiving day as stress free as possible. We weren't sure if we would have a turkey or not this year but thankful a friend found a place to order them from for us. But this wasn't just any 'ole turkey it was a SIXTEEN pounder! It was huge!!!
It barely fit in our oven!
Wish these girls had a little more personality ha!
We had fun with all these little turkeys!
We ate TWICE actually and played a little cranium in between!
After all of our guests left, we face timed with our family and got to talk to Jay's grandparents.
Also the morning of Thanksgiving I got a call from my mom saying to call her. She told me that my dad was having emergency knee surgery due to a really bad infection in it. He spent Thanksgiving day in the hospital. He is doing well now and at home recuperating. The good news was that he got to watch football all day ha! Love you daddy!
It was a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are so grateful and thankful for so much!
