Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy belated thanksgiving to everyone out there! We actually had a great Thanksgiving here in the UK, thanks (no pun intended) to a few other Americans in our church who banded together, standing up for the wonderfulness that is Thanksgiving. There were about 20 of us all there, American and British, and I think everyone had a great time. Here's a very few pics:

Proof that we wore our loving Thanksgiving shirts Jason sent us (side note: Seth's hair is so long!!)

Yummy dressing

A mound of meat from the turkey I very poorly carved:



Everyone enjoying the meal:


It was a lovely time. There was turkey, several types of potatoes, green bean casserole, pumpkin pie, even some type of Swedish dish made an appearance! We both really missed our families for sure, but at least we were able to still be thankful for the new friends that God has given us here. Which that's what it's really about, isn't it? Saying thanks for the things you've been blessed with that year. Seth and I have a lot to be thankful for - it's been an eventful year, and we couldn't have managed without God there to watch over us, guiding us along the way!

Of course, there is a small bonus feature to the blog...Seth's facial hair chronicles comes to an end! (for now I suppose)
