Turkey Time, Beach Time!!!

So lots has happened in the past couple weeks! I blame my beginners MIA to Vera, my Guatemala friend that has become my temporary roomate! I love it! It's been two weeks and we've got one left-- we've been fairly secretive about her being here, since she doesn't work for Buckner Guatemala anymore and it's a sensitive subject but it's been good times... watching you tube videos, concerts, game nights, shopping like the stores are gonna close next week, road trips, and galavanting fun!!!

We both went to Houston for Thanksgiving... Vera got the best glimpse of the crazy fam that I think any one of my friends has gotten... that's big-- mom danced on the table at one point... my non-english speaking grandpa attempted to play english taboo... the sassafrass sister... and thanksgiving dessert baking 101, it really was fun! My mom loves going to Galveston for Thanksgiving, ask me why she thought it was a good idea to cram 10 people into a 2 bedroom condo. Somehow though, it worked, and there weren't people in my face at all times! Surprising I know. We had a beach model shoot day, vera, julissa and I did... more photos soon to come... and then ran around on the beach with the dog. Thanksgiving day we went around the table and said what we were each thankful for-- and by the end all the girls were crying-- I think my mom passed on the cry at any and every sensitive moment to my sisters and I, cause they just pour out and you can't do anything about it; mom's though, you could put a timer on those things and probably get it right at the start, it's pretty bad. Then we played Spanglish taboo and finally finished the night off with salsa/merengue dance party.

Really, I love my family. As crazy and insane as they are, they're amazing.
