We had a fantastic Thanksgiving this year. My parents got into town the Monday before and stayed until the Monday after. It was so nice having family in Massachusetts! Monday night they got to our apartment pretty late and then Tuesday we just hung around our apartment because I still had work and Matt had one class. After I got home from work we headed up to Boston to do some temple work at the temple. We got there a little late for the session so we decided to go eat. We wanted to eat at Panera, but it had closed so we found this hole in the wall Mexican place that we didn't want to get our hopes up about,because the Mexican in Mass is really lacking. But it was so good!! And they didn't charge for chips and salsa which is also rare out here. After dinner we went back to the temple and did sealing and we had a wonderful experience! My sister Jessi had booked us an amazing hotel near the temple,so we headed right over after we finished at the temple. We were not disappointed!! The hotel was so beautiful!
In the morning at the hotel they had the best breakfast! An omelet bar made to order. We wanted to explore Boston with my parents,but the weather was looking dreary,but we decided to venture out anyway. We made it to the Old North Church and Paul Revere's house when it started down pouring we rushed back to the car and decided to skip the sight seeing and just head back home.
Thursday we slept in and watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and started making dinner around noon. We were able to have all the food on the table by 4:30! It was delicious and definitely a Thanksgiving I will remember. Now enjoy the pictures!
