thanksgiving

we spent Thanksgiving with the Brooks family and it was wonderful. we were spoiled with not one but two turkeys... a fried and a roasted. the fried was my favorite, it was so moist and delicious. we stuffed ourselves, but that's what your suppose to do on Thanksgiving, right? Bear's mom organized for all of us to paint either a snowman or santa to get in the spirit of the holidays. it was a great idea and lots of fun. everyone's came out looking spectacular. this was the first Thanksgiving that Bear and I have spent with family, and although we missed are friends we were so thankful to be around all of our family.

A Thanksgiving in Philadelphia

This year I am thankful for many things, a supportive husband, a wonderful doggy, good health, a house that has started to become a home, and great friends (just to name a few).  Friends have become a second family to us now that we live so far away from our own family.  This Thanksgiving I was extremely thankful to be spending the holiday with the Lindsay, Casey and the cutest one of all, Jack. We had a such a wonderful time eating yummy food, enjoying Thanksgiving and the first snow fall of the season, going on a beautiful walk, reading bedtime stories to Jack, and going downtown to a German Christmas Village. It was relaxing, enjoyable, and very special to be around such amazing friends.
