Stephen had his final exam the morning after Thanksgiving but was still able to come eat dinner with me and stay for a little bit. Overall we had a great Thanksgiving! There was even quite a bit of leftover turkey so I was able to take some home along with a few rolls. Stephen and I had our own mini Thanksgiving with just the two of us for Sunday dinner with the leftovers I got and then I made a green bean casserole and some more mashed potatoes and gravy. We even had pumpkin pie for dessert. It was a fun way to celebrate just the two of us together after the stress of his final was over with.
This isn't a thanksgiving post without saying a few things I am thankful for this year. I am of course so thankful for my family back home. I miss them so much and can't wait to see them soon! Here are just a few more. To start with I am so very thankful for Stephen. All the time I think about how lucky I am to have found such an amazing husband. I can't imagine my life with anyone else or any other way than how it is with Stephen. Second Stephen and I are both so thankful to be starting our own little family. We are so thankful for the opportunity to have a little baby. We feel so lucky and blessed and can't wait to find out the gender! Third I am even thankful that we were given the opportunity to live in Dominica for the last 16 months. We feel very blessed to be done with the first two years of Medical School and that we are starting our next adventure in just 3 weeks.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Our wonderful Island Family
