Thanksgiving

Each year we try to have a Thanksgiving meal as a little reminder of the kids’ other home, though we don’t always remember. This year was a little different, though, as we had an invite from some American friends to join them and some other friends in a ‘proper’ Thanksgiving meal. This followed a Thanksgiving event at Beavers, so I guess we’ve had plenty of opportunity to be grateful this year.

The dinner was great, lots of laughter and even more calories. The kids got to see the traditional foods they’ve forgotten, and reacted with hearty British scepticism. They were the only youngsters there, but did great at having fun without being too demanding on the other adults. And on a personal note I tried a fantastic 30 year old Macallan.
