Well I am writing a little too early, since it is Thanksgiving today still... just the beginning of the four day weekend. We didn't get to go home this holiday, I tried to make a turkey... see my artistic pictures :) Chachi... what do you think? :)
We had dinner with some friends it was a Hawaiin style dinner... it was AWESOME!! Almost everyone there today was from Hawaii or somehow closely connected. Let's just say... I ate spam & it was good :) Spam is a special treat in Hawaii, they serve it at McDonald's Spam & Eggs. I liked some noodle dishes too & Joy's husband was an ex-caterer... so let's just say we had 'da bomb (you like that slang) dinner!
Update on me & Eric, well we are doing good. The biggest event that has happened is our wait is up for our Pilgrimage to Haifa, Israel, Holy Land. We chose our dates at the end of March 2010. It is a 9-day Pilgrimage and we will be going to the Universal House of Justice in Israel, the shrine of the Bab and Baha-u-llah. It is encouraged for Baha'is to go on Pilgrimage once in their lifetime... needless to say we were on a wait list for 3 years (it was supposed to be 7 years) & we will be visiting sacred shrines and gardens to the Baha'i Faith where historic events took place with the Bab, Baha-u-llah and followers of the Faith. We are very excited we have been blessed with the opportunity to go. God willing we will be able to make it there with ease. We have not purchased airline tickets or anything yet.
I will add more to what we did this Thanksgiving Break... our weekend has only begun. We miss everyone very much. It is hard being away from everyone, especially now.
