American Thanksgiving in Ireland

 They don't celebrate Thanksgiving here and have never heard of Pumpkin pie, but we managed to re-create it perfectly. It was such a good night!
 Wayne and I canNOT get over how big she looks here. I don't want her to be 14!! Or move away! Ahh! It's happening!

 Norah's best friend Lilia - just 2 last month. Lilia calls Norah, "Nori" and it is so sweet!

 Why is the hostess, who just prepared 14 dishes and got them all onto the table, cutting OUR child's food you ask? Because she's super woman.
 Kirsten and Goran had to move all of their furniture out of the living room but they pulled it off! We had a huge beautiful table, and a kids' table for the two little ladies.

 Our two sweeties. (This looks like an old Irish painting to me)

Kirsten made two beautiful pumpkin pies and this was the first time trying the dish for Goran, his mom, his dad and little Lilia. We have successfully transplanted this American favorite to Ireland!

Just checking this out again (looking for new stuff - hint, hint) and I must say I love Norah's sweater. I want it :) She looks so cute in it!
