Giving Thanks

Even though family was far away, this year we were lucky enough to be surrounded by friends. Not that last year with Daniel (from Q's department) and a pork roast wasn't great, but it definitely felt more like Thanksgiving this year. Daniel was once again present, along with Yoonah (another student from the department), the 4 Buxtons, 3 Bennetts, 2 Sullivans, and Ruth's younger brother Adam. That brought the total to 11 adults and 4 kids. Let's just say everyone had a place to sit but things were cozy in our little apartment. Lydia was so exhausted that around 6pm she fell asleep on my lap even though everyone was crammed into the living room, laughing and singing to Karaoke Revolution on the XBox. She was wasted.


The turkey ended up a smashing success (no one got food poisoning), and since everyone else brought the other food items it turned out to be a low stress, high enjoyment day.

Hope your Turkey Day was great!
