Another Thanksgiving in Vienna

How did we celebrate Thanksgiving this year?  A dear Austrian family from our church, who recently moved outside of Vienna, visited us this year the weekend before Thanksgiving.  We took advantage of the opportunity and served a (mostly) traditional meal.  It was fun to introduce them to a few traditional dishes, and we especially enjoyed sitting around the table as adults, while the kids entertained themselves, and sharing with one another our thankfulness to God for how we have seen God working in the last year.  The time together was encouraging.  The friendships were refreshing.  And the kids were adorable.  They have a daughter a few months younger than Nathanael.  She is full of spunk and energy and sweetness, and the two hit it off every time we are together.  (They also have a daughter a few months older than Evangeline, but they haven't really discovered each other yet.  That will come.)

How we miss this family being in Vienna!

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving!
