SUCCESS!

I have another thing to be thankful for - that my constant queasiness eased up yesterday and did not pester me through Thanksgiving. Hooray!

Our very first Thanksgiving dinner that we cooked all by ourselves turned out FABULOUS! The turkey was done properly and not all dried out. The apple pie turned out really good. We also had mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, green salad, biscuits, and fruit salad. Then we took Sarah and the missionaries (who had dinner with us, and Adam sent them home with most of the leftovers) to the monuments: Jefferson, Lincoln, FDR, the new WWII memorial, the Vietnam Wall (and we found Elder Bean's uncle's name on the wall), and the Korea memorial. We also went to the Einstein statue and the Awakening statue (ask about Tawnia's pictures - it's hilarious). Back home for dessert - pie, pie, pie. Apple, pumpkin, cherry, blueberry and banana cream. It's been a very, very long day, but a fun day.

Happy Thanksgiving!
