We celebrated Thanksgiving with the Park family this year. Jun Suk is one of Josh’s fellow students, and this is his first year working on his Ph.D. at UTA. We had a lovely time with their family and enjoyed our fellowship together.
Thanksgiving preparations kept us busy both Wednesday night and Thursday morning. Wednesday night, while Josh was in class, I made three loaves of Challah bread. (Challah bread is traditionally served in Jewish homes for the Sabbath meal and at feast times, but I love it and decided to add some Jewish flavor into our 
Thanksgiving meal.)
Thursday morning I popped the turkey in the oven (love those oven bags), and when it was cooked, Josh did a wonderful job carving the turkey – just finishing as our guests were arriving.
After our guests left, we took a traditional after Thanksgiving meal nap, finished reading Chesterton’s The Man Who Was Thursday, went on an evening walk, and enjoyed warm turkey sandwiches for dinner.
We have so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving – our salvation, our marriage, our apartment, our jobs, and the many other blessings God daily gives us. He is our faithful Father. To God be the glory.
Looks awesome Amy. The bread looks delicious. You will have to give me the recipe sometime. We cooked our turkey, but my mom and sister did everything else. You’re an amazing woman to do the whole meal. I have yet to try. Can’t wait to see you. Love you.
Amy, I’m so impressed that you cooked the entire Thanksgiving meal! wow! Glad you had a great day.
VERY impressed, Amy! Way to go! Wish I had been there to partake. It looks like you had a good time. I’m eager to hear about your first day of teaching!
I am so proud of both of you and all the new things you do because you aren’t afraid to try – and the new friends you share your lives with. Words cannot express how thankful I am that the Lord has given you to each other – and that you are both “our kids.” 🙂 You are a blessing to me – and many others. Love you!
(think maybe we could make bread while you are here at Christmas – if we have time?)
Sounds like a wonderful Thanksgiving! Way to go on the cooking, Amy, and the carving, Josh, and I’m so glad you got time with friends and each other 🙂
The bread looks so delicious! Wow! They look perfect and could be put in a cooking magazine 🙂 Looks like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving day and yes, we have much to be thankful for!
Hey where is the stuffing? oh, yeah you said they won’t tell!!! LOL
