Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving doesn't exist here, obviously, so my host family decided to surprise me by inviting their family over for dinner to eat a typical Thanksgiving meal. They put so much thought into it researching typical foods served, trying to find a large turkey (they don't eat turkey like that here so it's rare to find one), and preparing little notecards that had sayings in English which corresponded with the main theme of this holiday- giving thanks or recognizing the importance of family. I am SO incredibly thankful for everything they have done for me!
