We didn't have an official Thanksgiving this year, as we were in NY during the Canadian Thanksgiving and are in Vancouver during the U.S. Thanksgiving. My sis has been here visiting this week, but today we're doing an unconventional Turkey Day. For one, we're not having turkey...we're doing like the Jews do on Christmas and ordering Chinese food...and blueberry pie, of course. Can't wait!
We are also decorating our Christmas tree (we never pass up my sister's presence, as she does most of the work)...Melvin "worked" from home today, while we watched some football, checked out a consignment shop and looked at the unusual snow falling onto Vancouver's roads. Vancouverites cannot handle snow! I saw a VW Golf spin out on 1/2 inch of snow this morning during a walk I was taking...seriously?
All in all, it has been so nice to not fight over whose family to visit and when during this holiday season! Or, having to load the kids up to visit one house after the other, ruining nap times, etc. in the process...
Here's to our first Thanksgiving in Vancouver!
