For Thanksgiving this year we were still in Orlando with Eric's family (after his sisters graduation). So we cooked up quite a storm in her little apartment kitchen, but everything turned out okay.
Eric carving the turkey - see his mother hiding behind him - telling him that he isn't a man unless he knows how to carve a turkey. Lucky for me - he knows how to carve a turkey!! :)
All this made in the little tiny kitchen - it was all really good! But honestly, his mom and I were up early cooking (and Eric and Lauren both sleep until almost 11:30 - they got up in time to shower and eat...) and we ate around 1 - but most of the day (and our vacation) was spent like this...
Guitar Hero! Lauren was really really great at it - and Eric got better as the week went on. I don't play video games (okay, we did Wii bowl a bit) but I am not very good at them and don't really like playing them. But that left me plenty of time to work on my knitting and sewing my binding on my quilt - so it worked out fine.
But another great advantage of being in Orlando for Thanksgiving (instead of any other American City) is that after the turkey and before the shopping, there normally isn't much to do. But instead of going to a normal ho-hum movie as most do, we got to go back to Universal and see the Blue Man Group!!
It was AMAZING!! Totally and completely awesome, interactive and FUN!!
And that was just Thanksgiving! We attended a fantastic family(ish) wedding on Friday - so much more to come!!
