The things we go along with...
So I have finally celebrated my first Thanksgiving! Last year the grandparents were supposed to have it at their house but grandma got sick and my host family didn't make that big of a deal of Thanksgiving anyways. Not that it should be made into a big deal. If America could just start over from scratch and choose a day to celebrate what we are thankful it would be great. But this whole Native American slaughter thing is making things hella uncomfortable. The things we go along with because of history is just strange sometimes.
Me and Nick didn't really know what to do that day so Neda invited us over to her house. So many of her relatives were there and Noah of course. We appreciated Neda inviting us because we had the most amazing time. I had been in a funk all day and missed Swedish stuff so Nick had watched a billion YouTube clips of everything from the ice hotel in Kiruna to "Allsång på Skansen" to cheer me up. So that combined with a great Thanksgiving dinner was perfect and made my day a success! We couldn't stop laughing while talking to Neda's brother and dad, they were hilarious!
At 7-eleven all dressed up and ready to celebrate ;) haha
Delicous food!
Haha, those guys...
I don't think I have ever looked this pale in my life :P
The only kid at the party turned out to be brighter than all of us combined!
Dessert, oh yes!
Neda gave him a laser thing to point at the floor so that the dog could chase it. They had so much fun.
Blurry pic but totally worth showing how much her brother made us laugh ;) that guy is awesome and so friendly
Nick managed to get ahold of this cutie, she's such a sweet dog
Well you know, most of the time ;) hahaha!
