I have lived here in NL now for more than three years and have pretty much adjusted to everything... except on this day every year. Thanksgiving. when I get a tiny bit homesick and wish it was a holiday here too.
I just think it is the most wonderful thing to have a day to stop and just realize how much we really have to be thankful for!
So I continue to celebrate it anyways :)
This year will be the first time that Desmond and I will just have it with the two of us but I'm still looking forward to it! Since I'm working today we will do it tomorrow.. and I won't do a whole turkey but I will make all our favorite sides and probably eat too much and enjoy the leftovers for a couple days!

And I am taking time to stop and think about all the wonderful things God has done and is going to do in our lives.. He is just so good and faithful!
and has blessed us beyond what we could deserve or even imagine..
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
xoxo Carly
Happy Thanksgiving Carly,
ReplyDeleteHet is in Nederland inderdaad niet gebruikelijk om dit te vieren en ik kan me voorstellen dat je het mist, zo heeft ieder land weer zijn eigen gebruiken.
groetjes Janny
Klopt! Maar het is wel leuk want straks gaan wij toch Sinterklaas vieren! :) en dat is weer iets dat wij in de VS niet hebben!
