Yesterday was THANKSGIVING DAY and for us Americans it is a very important day for us. As I noted in our last blog, Rebecca was preparing for this day all throughout the week. As you will see in some of the photos below, we invited some of our friends over. There was the Lohmann family, Catherine, and Kristiana. The Lohmanns have really become some good friends of ours since we have been here in Deutschland. Catherine (from South Africa) and Kristiana (a fellow American) are in my German class and we invited them over to join us for this special meal.
Now just so you all know, this was Rebecca's first time cooking the complete Thanksgiving Day meal all on her own. She was completely nervous. She was asking for advice on Facebook on how to cook a turkey and was reading up on it for days. But to sum it all up. The meal was absolutely amazing! She did an amazing job! To be completely honest, it was probably the best Thanksgiving meal that I have ever had! The LORD has truly blessed me with a wonderful wife!
So what was it that we had? Two turkeys! Thats right, not just one turkey, but Rebecca prepared two Turkeys! Way to go babe! Sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, green beans (which were amazing), freshly made cranberry sauce, freshly made rolls, stuffing, gravy, pumpkin pie, pecan pie, and a pumpkin/pecan pie. I hope I didn't forget anything! Like I said before, it was absolutely amazing!
Enjoy some of the pics from our day!
