This will be the first Thanksgiving I have not spent in Minnesota in a long time. It is making me a bit home sick. But I am extremely comforted by the fact that I will have family here with me! I am so excited for my mom, Auntie Neenie, and Grandma Joan to come visit me in Hong Kong. We are even trying to go out for a 'Thanksgiving dinner' :)
But, I will still miss the traditional American (Minnesota) Thanksgiving.
The things I will miss the most?
 |
| Thanksgiving decorations |
 |
| Fires in the fireplace - snuggled up in a blanket | | |
|
 |
| Bundling up in cute jackets and scarves |
 |
| Cute/warm boots to trudge through the snow |
 |
| My meat-less turkey |
 |
| Baking and eating pumpkin pie |
 |
| Snow (I know MN already has some!) |
 |
| Being able to see your breath when you walk outside |
Although I will be missing some favorite traditions this year, I am very thankful to be in Hong Kong and have this amazing opportunity and to experience a new culture and country. I am also thankful that I have an amazing family, who is willing to travel half way around the world to come visit me! I am truly blessed.
Love, Kels
How could shopping with me, Rae & Gina not be one of the things you miss at Thanksgiving?! :)
