Thanksgiving Recap

Last week was a bit of downer...lasagna on Thanksgiving, no family around, and a full five day work week. We did, however, make up for it on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday our school sponsored a Thanksgiving Feast. It was amazing! I did some Christmas shopping with the local artisans set up in the gym, the kids ran around the soccer field, and we all enjoyed a traditional Thanksgiving meal. Sure, cranberry sauce served in a Dixie cup is a little different, but the spirit was the same.

Sunday we traveled out to Embu and dined with friends at a gorgeous house. The grounds were beautiful and the weather perfect for enjoying the pool. Swimming on Thanksgiving is definitely a first! All of us had a wonderful time!

Yummy!

A good time was had by all!

Up next, a weekend of crafting...we need to prepare for Christmas! Two weeks until I head to Argentina/Iguacu Falls!
