I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving with friends and family, and all your favorite foods! Our first Thanksgiving in Austria was very different, but still great. It was definitely weird not being able to celebrate it with any of our family, but we did have good friends to share it with. We also missed almost all of our favorite foods because we could not find the ingredients here to make them. No turkey or cranberry sauce, but we did have some wonderful substitutes. They do not sell whole turkey's in any store here, but we found out that you could order one, but it was too late to get it here in time. I actually was not able to make it to the party because I have been the last couple of weeks. And, those who know me understand that I would have to be feeling pretty bad to miss out on Thanksgiving. I am feeling much better today and ready to dive into some leftovers. We are having some of our Austrian friends over on Sunday, so we will give this another try. We are on a desperate search today for canned pumpkin. Pray for us!
Food difficulties aside, we have so many things to be thankful for that they would be hard to list. We feel extremely blessed to be doing what we are doing and even more blessed to have friends like you. Enjoy your turkey sandwiches!
