Thanksgiving - a day late














Chris has really gone above and beyond to make a special Thanksgiving Dinner for us. He and Tim got up bright and early to start cooking the two 15 lb turkeys. Roe and Roy made wonderful side dishes to go along with the turkey. They really went to a lot of trouble and I am so thankful.
Lilli cried some last night - She is probably overwhelmed with all the new faces and new sights. We had her in our room last night - a good thing being that her crying probably would have woke everybody up. She is having a great time playing on the floor with all of her new toys and family. Savannah has been a great help in getting her fed and clothed. Lilli can't crawl yet, Chinese people do not put babies on the floor so they never learn to crawl. They go from sitting to walking. We were all showing her how to crawl but she just looked at us like we were crazy.
We had a great dinner with the whole family, Roe, Roy and even Andrew's girlfriend Lindsay. She was kind enough to bring over chocolate covered strawberries. Andrew must have informed her of my addiction to chocolate.
It was the best Thanksgiving ever!! We have something VERY special to be thankful for this year.
