Thanksgiving in Phoenix


So tomorrow I will experience my very first American Thanksgiving. I am in Phoenix for this holiday. my second state, so that's only 48 more to see, hehe. I can't tell you how excited I am about pumpkin pie, sweet potato mash, cornbread, pecan pie, pumpkin bread, turkey and cranberry sauce, to name but a few of the things I have heard rumours of. 


I can't tell you how many years I have been desperate to try pumpkin pie. It's strange how we hear about certain things and can't forget about them ever. My American friends would post photos every year and I always longed for a slice of pumpkin pie. 
 Everyone has been amazing and is going all out to make sure that there is plenty of delicious gluten free fare for me.

And at this time I am feeling rather homesick too. We watched Brave today too, which made me even more homesick and I had to fight back those tears. 

I love my Mummy, and I love my Daddy, and all my siblings!! I love all my college friends, and my church family, and my family back in England!!
