Thanksgiving!


This year my cousin Baeu and his family came over from England. It was the best Thanksgiving we have ever had overseas. Baeu and Sherrill brought the America specific essentials from the millitary base and then we spent an entire day cooking. But it was worth it! Look at our beautiful pies! Blueberry, Pecan, Pumpkin, and Apple. The apple one we decorated with shamrocks!
Kat was a great helper and even stuffed the turkey!
And was a different kind of helper. He wanted to dissect the neck and giblets. Gross yes, but we are proud of his mind.
After Thanksgiving we did some touristy stuff. The Neals saw the Cliffs of Moher and then we tried to go to the Christmas outdoor markets, but they weren't on yet. We did have success at Bunratty castle. Here is our little family on the roof!
Creepy Dungeon! Nice eyes!
Outside the castle. The castle is surrounded by a village and we got to see how the people used to live. We also met some Irish wolfhounds!
We also enjoyed being completely moved in and hosting family.
Here we all are- 12 people for dinner!
