Thanksgiving news!


we will be having thanksgiving here in china on saturday evening! i suppose it will be less than than Rockwell-esque considering the surroundings, but we'll be sure to have fun never the less. some of our beijinger friends have never been to a thanksgiving before, so ross is hilariously driving himself crazy thinking about the exquisite 12 course dinner he'd ideally like to prepare. turkey is an import so it's way too expensive, there will be other little whispers from thanksgivings past however. ross will make stuffing and a pie of sorts, and i will eat them happily. there will be 3 cubans and 1 panamanian girl so we'll definitely listen to spanish music and more than likely dance. i believe this will be a thanksgiving to remember. pictures are sure to follow.
it's gotten very cold now, to the point where the mid-fifties felt pretty warm just the other afternoon. i think we all have a whole lot to be thankful for this year, i sure as f--k know i do! i miss everyone back home a whole lot, but i really couldn't feel any happier here. i want everyone to have a happy thanksgiving and to know i think about home every day and i smile and can't wait to share with you guys again soon :)

thanksgiving here was great, you know, overeating galore and what not...

we owe each other some emails or something...let's get on that...kisses siempre!
