THANKSGIVING


Our family is coming, our family is coming. We are so excited that the Sullivans and Clausnitzers are coming to NYC to spend Thanksgiving with us. We have been trying to get the apartment ready. We have blow up mattresses, new furniture coming and tons of new fun decorations for our first time hosting a holiday. We have been trying to clean the apartment too but our cleaning is one of those "it gets worse before it gets better" types of cleaning.

As far as the meal goes, it will be as traditional as we can make it. We will have stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoe pie, rolls, green beans, an apple crisp and of course the turkey. However, this is a New York Thanksgiving and in true NY apartment style, we have ordered our 20lbs. turkey (already cooked and farm raised) from a small market.

On Thursday, we are going to get up early and head to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Norma calls this a 'bucket list' activity. We will put pictures up for everyone to see.

To our extended family...you will be missed but we cannot wait to see you at Christmas. We miss you and love you all very much.

Love,
Us
