Yesterday (Mon 12 oct), Canada celebrated their Thanksgiving. This is a day were people think about what they are thankful for and get together with their family to eat a great dinner. The Canadian and American thanksgiving is on different dates but they represent the same things. Because we have our family many, many, MANY, like millions of centimeter away from us, Me and Cathy got invited to a traditional thanksgiving dinner at Michelle & Kevin’s place, thank you so much guys! We had a wonderful evening with great food as I will show in the usual manner!
On thanksgiving, people it turkey, they even have a turkey cooker like the Chinese have their Rice cooker :D
We were a few exchange students that were invited for the dinner which were very nice… look at all the great food!
Lets take a closer look at the food, shall we?
And if we zoom in even further, we see in great detail what thanksgiving is all about :p
See my happy face!
Cathy shows her appreciation in another more direct way!
And after the food, it was time for another great tradition, carving pumpkins!!! It’s soon Halloween here in America so people need to have pumpkins in front of their homes. It was a really fun thing to do because you get messy! Also you can design your own pumpkin which makes it even more fun.
This was one of those activities were playing with a sharp knife is a good thing!
Cathy is putting the last pieces together of our pumpkin….
Tada!! Woho! Our pumpkin is alive!
When we were done with emptying the pumpkin, it was time to carve, me and Cathy made our own COOL design!
Our finished pumpkin, or as Cathy calls it, “Our first child”…
Later in the evening we ate some apple pie and sat and talked. It was a very nice experience and it seems like a quite fun holiday when you are a child, we should adopt something similar in Sweden!
So that was it for this time! Good night people!
