Today, I made my very first Thanksgiving meal! It was tiny and just for me, but I was still proud of it. I got to think about how extremely thankful I am for my family and friends! I miss you all SOOO much and hope you are having a wonderful holiday! I can't wait to share Christmas with you!
Here it is! Tofurky and veggies, beans, corn, and mashed potatoes! It may not look like much to you Americans, but after pasta everyday for the past 2 months, those mashed potatoes were like heaven!By the way, that is the top of a pineapple in the background that I had absolutely nothing to do with.
This week's lessons went very well. I feel like I am really getting to know some of my students. Rina even brought me flowers cause I have been sick :) So sweet!!
I haven't seen them yet, but I heard David and Debbie made it back safely from Puglia! I'm sure they had a wonderful time, and I look forward to hearing about it.
Tomorrow, I am leaving town with some friends for the weekend. My wonderful, fabulous parents got me tickets to see Coldplay in Birmingham, England for my birthday!
THANKS MOM AND DAD!!!!!

It was so good to see you on skype today for Thanksgiving. I can't wait to see you in person for Christmas. I have been praying for you in my prayers everyday. I Love you, Mimi
Happy Thanksgiving, Sweetie! It was good to talk to you today!! Have a great time in England! We love you, Mom, Dad and Karley
Happy Thanksgiving - even it's a little late :) Have fun in England and have a safe trip home :)
Love you, Ericka
Kensey, I don't really know what I'm doing so trying to leave a comment may not work. But, here goes.
Your updates and pix are great. What a memorable Thanksgiving this will always be to have spent it in a foreign country. Sounds like your language lessons and teaching are progressing very well.
Sorry to hear you've been feeling puny, at times.
Hope you got lots of pictures of your trip to England to share with a certain person I know who is a Coldplay fan.
Have you ever been to Prato? If you ever plan to go there, let me know.
Have a safe trip home.
Love,
Amy
You did a good job with your Thanksgiving meal... though I can't believe you didn't have spaghetti with it - you know it goes with everything :)
I have to admit I am a little jealous of your Coldplay trip to England! Enjoy!!
