Happy Thanksgiving!

One great thing about Majuro is that we had access to everything that we needed for a normal Thanksgiving dinner! The turkey was a Butterball and the cranberries were fresh! Even though it's a ton of work, I really love making it, and it was so fun to put it together with Autumn. To make it even better, we had family here to share it with!

Happy Thanksgiving!
