We had our BIG Thanksgiving Feast
the Saturday after Thanksgiving
since Thursday, Nov. 24 was not a Holiday
here in Hong Kong.
THE SET-UP
 |
| The kid's room. |
Nov. 26th was
one of our little friend's
3rd Birthday so we used balloons
as the centerpieces.
We used the Living Room and
Dining Room for adult seating.
THE FOOD
After set up was complete it was time to
pick up the turkeys.
I pre-ordered them, cooked by Art (man's name),
in the local grocery store's meat department.
LOOK at those price tags!!!
$900 HK ($115 US) EACH
and we ordered two.
READY
TO
EAT!!
THE PEOPLE
There were 85 who attended.
For a few it was their FIRST
Thanksgiving - since they are not from
the U.S. and don't celebrate this holiday.
Now it's time for CLEAN-UP :)
There's SO MUCH to be THANKFUL for!
It was a HAPPY Thanksgiving!!

I see the missionaries, so was this feast for the ward or co-workers or both? Tiff
Tiff - We invited the Branch and a few friends from the neighborhood. It was GREAT!
We had some Korean friends over one Thanksgiving and for their son it was the first time he had ever eaten turkey. He was about 5 at the time. You would've thought he'd died and gone to heaven by the amount that he ate. He couldn't get enough. And they all loved the pumpkin pie. We had a great time. And they brought potstickers to add to the feast and our kids were thrilled. It was one of the best Thanksgivings we've enjoyed.
I'm sure you all had a great time too.
