Happy Thanksgiving 2009

Auntie JianPing and Uncle Randy are visiting us this week. We had a blast. Mom was suffering from a cold for the entire week courtesy of Jeremy and his school friends. Every one of them in the same class is sporting a runny nose. The turkey this year is 10lbs, but the 5 of us still couldn't finish. All the side dishes were gone though, the stuffing was a hit and Rick single handedly finished all the roasted potatoes, Jeremy finished almost all the garlic bread. :-)

Daddy took out the Christmas tree on Friday, and boy, what a difference this year, Jeremy was genuinely into the ornaments, and was so excited about decorating the tree, compared to last year, he was grabbing everything and breaking everything, a year makes a big difference in this little boy.

Some pictures to share with family here. Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!

Exciting boy decorating the tree, the theme this year on the tree is silver and gold. Jeremy kept saying, "Mom, you are not helping!" while working with his D-A-D.




Our new found passion for Hot Pot on Friday night. great crowd pleaser, except Jeremy only wants noodles...
