Thanksgiving 2008

In honor of Thanksgiving it has made me reflect on all the things that I am grateful for in my life.
My loving husband
My wonderful family
My health and my family's
My beautiful and loving furbabies
My job despite the crummy economy
Our awesome vacations that we took this year
And for all the things we've accomplished in 2008!

We had a very good Thanksgiving, especially since Karen was home with us. She wasn't able to come home last year, so it's never the same without her. Early Thanksgiving day my sisters and I went to go see 4 Christmases since we weren't having dinner until 6pm. I loved the movie by the way, very funny and cute and even better that it was filmed in San Francisco since we had just vacationed there!

Later that evening we went to my MIL's house where we've been having Thanksgiving for the past three years. My parents and sisters always join so it makes things easier, rather than visiting a million houses in one day and eating at each one. We had our traditional Thanksgiving dishes which included turkey,honey baked ham, broccoli and cheese casserole, my mom's cream of mushroom pasta, stuffing, mashed potatoes, homemade macaroni, green beans casserole, and rolls. For dessert there was pecan, pumpkin, and chocolate pie, empanadas, and Mexican wedding cookies-yumm! And believe me I had a little bit of everything well a lot rather.

After our Thanksgiving dinner we came home and watched movies. Karen and Karina spent the night since we were going to go shopping at 3:30am on Black Friday, aah yeah we joined the craze!
Here are some pics, enjoy-yes this is all for you Karina!
