It can be hard celebrating holidays when to everyone else around you it's just another day. And of course our country does not celebrate Thanksgiving. But fortunately this year, our country is celebrating one of their biggest holidays of the year this weekend. So although they are not thanking God for their many blessings and eating turkey till they bust, there is a festive spirit in the air that made Thanksgiving Day special.
We had a great time celebrating with our friends yesterday. More than 30 of us gathered together to eat and enjoy the day. There was a ton of food and lots of Mexican Train, which makes for a perfect day in my book. Thanks to the creative women who lived her before us, we even had sweet potato casserole (made from carrots, since you can't get sweet potatoes here). It totally tastes like the real thing.
Happy Thanksgiving to our family and friends. We miss you today and love you lots!
Oh, and Happy Birthday Mom! You're the best!
