Thanksgiving in Chengdu



Thanksgiving came this year and it seemed different because the girls had school and no holiday. I was also used to leaving to go see family or family coming to see us!! This was our first thanksgiving away and we missed home. The girl's school had a thanksgiving lunch so I met them up there to eat with them. It was fun, turkey, potatoes, and pumpkin pie. After the lunch, one of Rylan's classmates got mouth and hand disease and they also suspected Rylan. She had some bumps on her hands but it was much different than her classmates. So Thanksgving I took her to the doctor. He basically could say she had and could not say she didn't so he told me to keep out of school. That day we were suppose to go and have thanksgiving dessert at our friend's house, but had to cancel so we had soup and grill cheese sandwiches. Not quite a Thanksgiving dinner. Friday night, we went to a Thanksgiving dinner at this nice hotel called Intercontiental hotel. It was really nice. They had all the Thanksgiving fixens and NFL football games playing on a big screen. They even had cake making activity for the kids and activities for them to do. Cohen and Rylan stayed home since we were unsure of her diagnoses. Our ayi watched her. Here are some pictures of Avery making a cake!!
