Our First Thanksgiving....(Overseas)

This year was our first Thanksgiving overseas. We were thankful to be able to celebrate with our friends and have a traditional Thanksgiving meal. We certainly missed our families back home, but were so grateful for the friends, food, fun, and many blessings we had that day!

Here is our little turkey:




Our friends were on a turkey hunt for several weeks and we found one a week before at a local grocery store, to our surprise. I tried brining the turkey this year, something I've never done before. Here is our cooked bird:



All I can say is we were not short on desserts! They were delicious!



Technically, this was Asher's second Thanksgiving, but it was his first time getting to eat all of the many goodies that come with a Thanksgiving meal. I think he appreciated all that he got to eat this year!



It was a thankful Thanksgiving!

Ready for Winter

Asher is ready for the cold weather with his new coat. He looks a bit puffy, but he'll be very warm this winter! :)

Asher

We realized that it was time to switch out old pictures in frames and send updated photos of Asher to our families. Here was our attempt today to get a few shots of him.

Ladies' Weekend Getaway

We had a blast this weekend enjoying warmer weather, relaxing, yummy food and touring the city of Bodrum.

Our hotel was great! It was beautiful, but a crazy layout on the inside. We had many good laughs as we had difficulty finding our way around inside.

Beautiful views from our hotel:
