Thanksgiving ... Japanese Style

A little holiday cheer!

"Older kids" table

"Younger" kids and the moms ate at the adjacent table.


On Thanksgiving day Ryan had to work so the boys and I went with our friends, the Treharnes and had Teppanyaki for lunch. It was a lot of fun. We then spent the rest of the day with them watching movies, playing games and drinking hot chocolate. Fun for all!! We had our actual TURKEY dinner on Saturday with a few families that live near us. Turkeys are expensive here, but at $45 they are still cheaper than the ones I used to buy in Holland for $100 each. I didn't have to cook the turkey this year -- I got to make pies and stuffing. The bad part is we didn't have enough leftovers for the post Turkey day meal.
