Ten gringos joined together to celebrate Thanksgiving at Jeff and Paula's house. The meal was a joint effort! Between Paula Rhoades, Keeley Blackstock, Linda Pinnell and me we served up turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, corn, cranberry sauce, pineapple casserole (Linda says this is a traditional Thanksgiving dish in North Carolina), rolls, pumpkin pie and pecan pie. We all enjoyed having Ryan and Keeley's girls with us--Avigail is 8 and Ella is 6. They worked on Thanksgiving crafts and took drink orders! After lunch there was some football and some Wii games.
I got pictures of the food, but, unfortunately, didn't get pictures of the people! Please do not think this is an indication of my priorities! :-)
We were also able to Skype with Daniel, Shannon, Maleia and Josiah. It was good to see all of their smiling faces. We didn't talk with Jon so I am unable to report on the success/failure of his pumpkin pie baking adventure.
