Thanksgiving Wrap-Up

Thanksgiving weekend was awesome! It just came at the right time after I finished writing my papers. My professors were so nice to have us stress about them before the long weekend. I was glad for them to be turned in.

This thanksgiving, it was great to have a break from all the daily school stuff that needs to be done and the house chores that need to be taken cared of...etc. This time around, my family went to my cousin's house for 3 days! We had a blast! Sometimes when we have these family get togethers, it always feels like its not enough time. So we decided to do a sleepover. Of course we had the food too! (Food is the main thing!) But it was a Filipino style of thanksgiving. Our turkey was a gift from a family friend but it was a whole one it was just pieces to the whole thing, but that was good because our main thing was the ham! It was fabulous! My cousin's wife made it with her own special recipe sauce. I had to take some home to go.

Besides the food, we played video games, like Guitar Hero and this web cam thing where you see yourself in the screen and you become a part of the game. My son loved it! But we all look really silly when you just see us plainly as it is:) We watched movies like Spiderwick Chronicles and Mummy 3. Everything went great except the last day. My son, myself and my sister got really sick. Throwing up all day and couldn't really eat well. But thank God we were all better on Sunday.

This thanksgiving was really all about the family. The times we spend with each other is priceless. Those moments are always worth remembering.
