We had a fantastic Thanksgiving this year! Our great friends, the Webers, stayed with us for a few days over the holiday as they ventured out on a road trip from FL to VA. We were all worried for a bit as Mark had gotten Covid right before their visit, so he was still wearing a mask with symptoms, making everyone nervous, but, fortunately, no one else got sick as we kept him semi-isolated!
Bridget and I have known each other since 2009 (I mean, she has her own label in our blog!). This is a picture after 13 years of meeting each other, taken on our back porch. And I am wearing a T-shirt that I got in Misawa after running/walking a 5K on base WITH Bridget because she convinced me to give it a go. She went at my pace and made me believe that I COULD indeed run a 5K, which started my running journey. By the way, the T-shirt is super funny, of ugly brown color, picturing turkeys flying under a military plane (because it was a Turkey Trot on our Air Force base).
Somehow, we ended up with no pictures from actual Thanksigiving! I guess we were too busy making dinner and then eating it! We had a delicious Thanksgiving dinner with amazing stuffing, pies, sweet potato salad, and a bunch of other stuff.
To be honest, I can’t remember if we went on a walk on Thursday or Friday morning, but I think it was before we started all the dinner prep. We took the Webers to the American Tobacco Trail.
Those who actually went for a run.
The rest of us enjoyed a very chilly brisk walk.
In the evening we watched Enola Holmes 2 movie.
Robert also was excited to show Tom and Bridget his practice, especially, now that it’s renovated and expanded. A much different place from the dental clinic in Misawa.
And our farewell picture! The Webers are such wonderful friends--they make you feel good and positive inside, but can give you valuable advice as well. And it helps that their kids are amazing as well and they get along with our kids:). We missed Katya and Lizzie on this picture, two childhood friends who spent days playing outside in Japan when they were 6-9 years old.
We hope they come visit us again!
