Man, I am so behind in posts! After Honduras, school started and it was non-stop since. I'm so glad we're on Christmas break...Time to rest, relax, and recap what's been going on!
Thanksgiving in Delaware:
When it comes to food, the "Nguyen Thanksgiving" never disappoints. Every year my family from my Dad's side flies over and we spend three days of non-stop eating-Turkey, ham, roast beef, goose, mash potatoes, pies, buttery veggies, you name it! My brother tried something new this year- fried turkey. It was an overall success and he produced the moistest and juiciest turkey I've tasted thus far (even the white meat was super moist).

I was also able to see my lovely cousins from Chicago and meet Luca's girlfriend, Caitlin. The three days included go-karting, Harry Potter, seeing my UD friends, celebrating my uncle's birthday, and hanging out with the family. The old saying is true...There's no place like home!
Our family loves congregating around the kitchen

Aivi and Jeremy!
Thanksgiving also gave us a chance to celebrate Aivi and Jeremy's engagement! Congratulations! I'm so happy for you two. I can't wait to celebrate the engagement Vietnamese-style! Most of us knew this was going to happen, we just didn't know when. I'm so glad we were able to be together during the holiday to celebrate such a memorable day for both families. My prayers and blessings to you both! XOXO.
The official proposal happened hours before my arrival into Philly. Lam was there to film the whole thing and take pictures. It's all on FACEBOOK. Check it out and enjoy!

Now that Christmas is approaching...Our family will be celebrating in California and preparing for my aunt's long-waited wedding on New Year's day (a whole new post on THAT). It will be a fun, busy, tiring, but LOVING Christmas! Let's not forget the real meaning of the season though! CHRISTmas!
