Thanksgiving week

Before I tell ya about my Thanksgiving Ill catch ya up on the latest. Tuesday Ami, the boys and I went to Geneva which is another big city in Switzerland. I think it might be the second largest. We were just looking to get out and do something. So we threw everyone in the car and drove an hour and a half. It was a beautiful ride and the best part was we escaped the rain in Biel. On the route there were mountains and vineyards. We even saw a rainbow. First thing we did when we got there of course was grab STARBUCKS and then to H&M to get something pretty to wear for the holidays. Isnt it funny how bad you want to go and see new things and you end up going right for the things that are most familiar. Ami actually had to run to H&M half way through the starbucks to get griffin a new pair of pants since he peed through the ones he had on. And so he was in his new batman rain gear with no pants on in starbucks lol. And before we left I managed to dumped my drink all over the floor :) What are you gunna do. The shopping was fun and next we went out to find this carnival we had seen online for the kid however we were sadly informed it closed for the season. The sun was setting so pretty when we decided to find dinner. We ate at a yummy pizza place and then before the trip was over I bought a leather jacket!!! But I think I am going to return it.. I feel to much like a biker chic. So the search continues.
On Wednesday Bern tv had arranged to come interview the Brown family. So we spent the morning cleaning the house till the camera guy came. He filmed them as a family and then asked them questions about the season and about their daughter that passed away. God is using their story to touch so many lives. I am just amazed. To bad we missed it on the air lol.
Thursday Ami decided she was going to buy a turkey but they are hard to come by around here since people dont celebrate Thanksgiving in Switzerland. Even back at home before flying out Ami had me buying her certain spices and things that they dont sell here so she could make Thanksgiving dinner. I was so excited I got to help. I told her sweet potatoes were my favorite so she had me find the recipe and I made them myself. A couple from the team came for dinner as well and being from Switzerland they were so excited to have an American thanksgiving. They said it was just like the movies haha. I had mentioned to Ami I wished I could watch the parade so Curtis was able to get it on his computer that made my day!! It was a lovely Thanksgiving so yummy. I even tried to carry out tradition by watching a Christmas movie after everyone had gone to bed since I missed the Thanksgiving movie tradition but the dvd player wasnt working.
Of course I missed my family and friends but I hope everyone enjoyed the day and I am thankful for you all.
