Dia del Pavo 2007

For Thanksgiving this year, Kev and I ventured to Brazil and Argentina! My dad is on a 6 month assignment with his job in Buenos Aires, Argentina and he invited us to join him for the Thanksgiving holiday. Not only did he invite us but he invited my grandma and poppi from New York also. After a long plane ride we arrived in Buenos Aires on Wednesday morning around 10:00 am and went on a tour of the city, followed by a late night dinner with my cousins from my mom's side of the family. It was so good to see all of them after 8 years! We spent the week sight-seeing, shopping, going to a Tango show and by the time we were getting settled, it was time to fly out to Florianopolis, Brazil. Although Buenos Aires was very cold while we were there, the weather in Brazil was hot and beautiful. Dad rented a beach house for the few days we would be there for grandma, pops, Kevin and I. Again, we played around on the beach, went sight-seeing, ate good food, and visited with family. It was a wonderful holiday and the trip was such a blessing to us! Thanks Dad! More pictures to come!
This was a really neat nativity scene we found in downtown Florianopolis. I think I'm covering baby Jesus's head but the sign in the back says "Peace on Earth" in Portuguese.
