Happy Thanksgiving!

A little late, I know, but we hope that you all had a great time with friends and family and were able to spend time thinking about all that you are thankful for. For us, Thanksgiving day was just another ordinary day. We all got up and went to school and then Josh ran some errands and I brought the kids home and went to bed. We did, however, get to spend some good time talking to our families on Skype. It was so good to see everyone, but it was also hard seeing what we were missing. We did go to TGIFriday's for lunch in hopes of a big Thanksgiving meal, and they had one- for dinner, not for lunch, so we missed it. Maybe next year! We did really enjoy our meal anyways.
We celebrated Thanksgiving with our team on Saturday. Everyone brought favorite dishes and also tried some new ones. I was able to make green bean casserole and creamed corn and mashed potatoes. We had turkey (or course) and lots of homemade bread and mac and cheese (Carli loved it!) and pies and more. The food was amazing! We played a game of Pictionary after dinner and I think everyone had a good time. I know that this was a hard year for everyone on our team because it was the first big holiday away from family. We still had a great time together (like we always do) and made some new holiday memories.
