So I know this post is a day late but we had a busy day yesterday with Thanksgiving - indulge me! First of all, David and I have so much to be thankful for this year:
~ He is doing wonderful in his PhD program and in all his classes
~ I have a job (currently temporary but I did apply for a full time position at the company)
~ We are both healthy and happy
~ We have many wonderful friends both near and far. We love all of you!
~ Our families are both in good health (even my grandfather, who has recovered well from heart surgery)
~ I finished my Masters degree and have both the paper degree and the printed thesis in hand
~ David's younger sister graduated from BYU and became engaged to a wonderful man
And those are only a handful of the wonderful things that we have been given this year. We again went to Traci's house for a wonderful and fabulous full Thanksgiving meal. The turkey was marinated in yogurt and tandoori spices... SO GOOD. I think I am in love with the turkey. It came out moist and flavorful. Although, I am now tempted to make a mojo-style turkey. There was garlic naan, spicy Indian mashed potatoes, corn cooked in milk and spices, and... I can't remember all of it, just that is was very very good. I managed to not stuff myself silly somehow.
After feasting, we played some games. David won at Risk against his nephews. When I saw the game, there was lots of blue on the map (David owned roughly 2/3 of the world when I saw the game). I declined on a chance to take over the world. Instead, I played 4 or 5 games of Pandemic with Sister Black and other members of the group (we had a rotating group). At one point there were 4 of us playing. It's a bit more complicated when there is four and you have to get everyone coordinated!
I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving yesterday!
