Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving weekend. Ours was great. (Thanks for asking.) The miracle was that Joanne had the entire weekend off from work! Here's a recap:
On Thanksgiving day, we had dinner at the Miyaji's house. Glenn made us some fried turkey...it was our first experience, as well as his. We had that along with some crab legs, amazing appetizers, and sushi.
On Friday, our friend Gene came in from Japan. We went to go do some after Thanksgiving shopping with him. He bought a new iPod and a portable DVD player. Who would've thought someone from Japan would come here to buy electronics?On Thanksgiving day, we had dinner at the Miyaji's house.

Later that night, our friends came over and we just hung out and played 90s Trivial Pursuit.
The next morning, we got up early and began preparing the food for our Saturday Thanksgiving. Joanne and mom did the turkey preparation. Buster helped, too.
We had 16 people enjoying the Thanksgiving meal. We ran out of table space, but everything worked out alright. The food was excellent and we were all stuffed afterward.
The TV show Lost was played throughout the entire day and through the night. Gene insisted on seeing as much as he could, so by 4am we completed Disc #5 of 6. (and we finished Disc #6 the next morning)
Jacob had a good time, but got a little tired at the end. Later on, we busted out the old Rebound game, too. What a great game...
The girls played Pounce and Joanne was awarded 'Steel Thumbs' for her achievement in beating Steph. Congratulations.
On Sunday, we went to The Grove in Hollywood with Eddy, Steph, and Alan. It was nicely decorated for Christmas, complete with a huge Christmas tree. We rode on the trolley, too! (that was THE highlight of the evening)
And now, back to work!
