This Thanksgiving was the first Thanksgiving that Kyle and I did not spend it with one of our families. It was somewhat relaxing not traveling, but we definitely missed the tradition. We slept in and then cooked us a nice, tasty breakfast. I made chocolate gravy (Kyle's family's speciality) and Kyle made PERFECT white gravy. Then, that evening we went over to the Imbodens' house (one of the church founders) to hang out with their family and the Robbins' family. We are definitely lucky to have such wonderful people here to take us in! :)
We continued our festivities on Friday by going to the Trans Siberian Orchestra in St. Louis. The first half was...well, ok...with the exception of a few rockin' songs. The second half....A-MAZING!!!! They are awesome. Go watch someone moving their hands/arms on fast foward in your VCR and that is exactly what they looked like!! To tell you how much they rock out...the main guitarist was sitting on a stool all night because he is recovering from his shattered knee/torn ACL that he blew out 3 weeks ago rockin' on stage. They say he never missed a note when it happened!! Along with their incredible talents they have the most amazing light show we've ever seen! They are definitely worth the money if they are near you!!
I couldn't find a great live clip on youtube...although there were tons...so I went with this to remind you of their most popular song:
And finally, Saturday and Sunday I got all my Christmas decorations up! (not that I have many) The dogs like their stockings alot. 
Hope everyone had a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!
