This was the first year in my entire life, I didn't have Thanksgiving with my family. I'll have to admit that I was a little sad, but we ended up having a great time!
Since the Husband has finals right after Thanksgiving the holiday is somewhat stressful for him, and he doesn't really have time to travel. So this year we stayed right where we were, and invited a few other professional students and wives over. Well it turned out to be just one other wife. J and I did all the cooking, and we got a little carried away with ourselves, but hey it's Thanksgiving and the more food the better, right?
This isn't really a good pic of our smorgasbord, but you can get the general idea.
We were pretty proud of ourselves (and our oven mitts)!
But don't worry about me, after our Thanksgiving feast I was able to sneak off to LA and visit the fam. It was especially fun to see these little folks!
(Notice that Ariel is having a snack too. The Little Mermaid is a big hit with G & H right now.)
(those eyes say it ALL)
