Thanksgiving in China

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration with our small group from church on Saturday night. I am so very thankful for these people God has given us to connect with here. We had half a dozen families together for our Thanksgivng... thirty of us! With lots of help from the import stores, we were able to have a pretty traditional meal, with turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, vegetables, rolls, and three kinds of pie.

One of the guys, Doug, had been in the States the week before Thanksgiving, and he brought back two frozen turkeys in his suitcase! We had a third turkey that the couple who hosted had been given the week before when they moved into their new house. Here is the carving group!

Kids dig in!
