We didn't have turkey on Thanksgiving day, but we sure did celebrate. Football video games (since the actual games weren't on in our time zone), KFC chicken, homemade sides, dessert, and friends. We left without a single bit of homesickness.

| Some of the boys and the babies. Miss A loves playing with her favorite friend. |
On Saturday we had turkey.
and more turkey.
 |
| Our branch ordered turkeys from the wonderful US. They were too big for Chinese ovens, so the cooks had to cut them in half to cook them. They were de-li-cious. |
100+ members and friends came to celebrate Thanksgiving with our branch. We were stuffed and entertained with a branch talent show.

| It looks like a real Thanksgiving dinner, right? |
On a day like that, I can see why some Chinese think we are a fat people.
But it is so worth it.

| Hope you had a great holiday! |
How wonderful! I'm glad you had such a great Thanksgiving! It looked delicious in the pictures. :). We are thankful for your friendship! We miss you all.
