Thanksgiving

So today was our first thanksgiving away from both of our families. I have to admit it was a little weird not spending it with family and it didn't exactly feel like thanksgiving, but i am thankful for the many wonderful people we have come to know here.

This morning we woke up bright and early and made 2 pumpkin rolls and a yummy sweet potatoe mixture. Then we headed to Diana's home for an early dinner. It was such a wonderful and DELICIOUS dinner! we were joined by shayna, lisa, azamat, maciej, gary, anya, katusha, lennie, avi and roger. We had a great day and had alot of fun spending time with everyone.

Now... time to get ready to go shopping!

It Happened...

So i've known this would probably happen sometime, but i didn't expect it to happen so soon, or right outside our own door. But it did.

The other night travis and i were on our way out and right when we closed the door i heard a noise to my left and what did i see? a Possum! a real live possum. It was pretty disgusting looking. luckily they are harmless and it just scurried off, but it was still pretty disturbing to see it right outside our door.
