Ex-Californians’ Thanksgiving 2016
[Saturday 26 November 2016, posted online on 25 January 2017. Get hungry just thinking about it!]
A subsection of the Icelanders that we got to know in California, and moved back home to Iceland, have met annually for thanksgiving for a few years now.
Soffía gracefully offered up her home for the festivities this year, and all the guests brought something for the communal table.
We overate, and everybody had a wonderful time! (28 images total)
Anna, and Elsa with two of her kids in one corner of the living room.
Manly discussions in the kitchen.
Snorri knows what he sings!
Lára and Jónína chat.
Plates ready. Soffía is an expert party hoster!
Emma was there.
There were multiple chefs!
Some guests took it a little more easy.
Kristborg and Sif, all grown up!
Yeah, baby!
The sides (mostly) all lined up.
Hungry yet?
Soffía laughing at a funny joke, probably involving Eggert carving the turkey!
Hungry people with hope in their eyes.
Let the feast begin!
The ever growing boys.
We scarfed down the glorious food, and soon it was time to bring out the dessert!
Food heaven!
Discussions in progress.
Good times!
Relaxing by the window that overlooks a large part of the capital area.
I was there!
Dessert!
The kids appared from the lower floor, where all the cool stuff is, to eat dessert. Then a lot of the boys went out into the dark to play football (soccer)!
Buddies.
Soffía and one of her twins.
Chatting while digesting.
Jónína posing to show how good the food was! 🙂
