Thanksgiving

The weather was absolutely beautiful on Thanksgiving. As a result, Emilie and I decided to walk along the Strand for a bit before the formal festivities began. We started at the Manhattan / Hermosa border and then walked to the Pier before heading back along the water.











Here’s a picture of Emilie walking on beach with pier in the background.

The Thanksgiving group was small this year, with my uncle Mike and cousin Christian joining the four Careys and Emilie. This made for a nice holiday setting and left plenty of room for gluttony.










The small group also allowed us to actually make use of the dinner table for Thanksgiving for the first time in as long as I can remember.

Overall, I think we gave Emilie a good representation of a true American Thanksgiving (perhaps aside from the unseasonably warm Southern California temperatures).










And here’s a picture of Emilie and Mike discussing the joys for French wines, while Fiona tries to convey the joys of fetch.
