Thanksgiving

So even though Thanksgiving is not celebrated in Australia, we decided to hold our own family Thanksgiving on Friday evening.

I went all over town (5 stores!) in effort to find the basic ingredients for a good Turkey Meal.  

Everything turned out great....except the TURKEY!!   Not sure what happened or if it was just a bad bird...but to sum it up, no one had seconds!!!

Just one for the memory book.....at least we were all together and healthy.   We are very thankful for that and also for the love and support we are receiving from our friends and family while in Australia.

Yes, we were outside on the deck.   It was around 85 degrees and beautiful!   We had to literally pull the girls out of the pool to come and eat!!!!
