It is very strange to be in a different country when Thanksgiving rolls around. We both love Thanksgiving and it is so hard to not have cool weather and our favorite Thanksgiving foods. But, we did what we could and ended up celebrating Thanksgiving twice last week.
On Monday we threw a little party for our English class. We made a few different foods and I successfully made a squash pie from scratch. Sam taught our students what Thanksgiving is and we had a fun time just hanging out with our class
All of our Thanksgiving guests.
On Thursday we were invited to have Thanksgiving with the two other missionary couples who live here in the area, Tim and Helen Smith and Pete and Cindy Eckstrand. Aaron and Michelle left on Wednesday for Central African Republic where they will wait to deliver their baby and then wait to get the baby's passport before returning. So, just the two of us took motorcycle taxis over to the Thanksgiving party where we ate like royalty!
The photo I took of the whole table full of food and people wouldn't upload here. So we will leave with a photo of Sam and Pete watching a previously recorded football game on Pete's computer.
Looks like y'all did well! I like the little changes too - squash pie. I bet it was good!! :)
