Thanksgiving 2014

Last year we went to Boston for Thansgiving. This year we decided to host some friends; Caoihme, Dave, Lucy and Ben (our Irish friends) and Jo, Chris and Elsie (our Yorkshire friends). Impressively though we managed to have three Americans (Lucy, Ben and Joshua) and a South African (Elsie) by virtue of birth.

I'd intended on cooking a full meal until I finally listened to Caoihme who had pointed out many times this was crazy with a 5 week old baby. So I ordered a 'heat and serve' meal from a grocery delivery service. They made it very easy!


Which was particularly helpful given someone didn't want to sleep!


Matt had expressed serious concerns about the lack of food (in his perception). Thankfully the leftovers proved him wrong!


And just because it's cute, here's one of all the kids.


We had a lovely day, we are truly thankful to have made some good friends while here that make being far from home so much easier.
