Today is not just thanksgiving, it is also Peter’s birthday (in lunar calendar). We had a small cake after our big thanksgiving meal to celebrate with Peter.

Let’s start with a series of funny group shots

Curtis says, ‘ichiban —‘

This year’s menu item isn’t too different from the last couple of years.

Turkey

Sausage, Cranberry, and bread stuffing

Spicy Mussels and Chorizos

Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms

Baked Mashed Potatoes with Broccoli (Peter’s creation)

We took Curtis to watch a movie on thanksgiving day. “Tangled” — it was quite nice.

Curtis put on some fashionable 3-d glasses…..

After the movie, we went to a nearby 99 Ranch market for lunch

今天一早，璿璿早早就起床了，拿著三姨和Peter姨丈到德州去玩時買的湯瑪士小火車的便當袋，裝著他喜歡的Annie’s Organic Fruit Snack (有機的水果軟糖) 開心又興奮的準備上路了! 媽媽幫他穿了好多件衣服，因為舊金山的海邊，真的是很冷的!!! 還替他穿上了前一天才幫他買的休閒皮鞋。真的很帥唷! 佩錡阿姨幸好在兩個禮拜前，送給了我們Timmy哥哥穿不下的外套，要不然，真的可能會冷到我們的小寶貝呢!

Curtis was quite a handsome boy today wearing his red outfit

我們跟著世界各地來的旅客，一起再Powell 街等著坐纜車! 人還不是很多，等我們回程的時候，真的是人山人海。幸好我們提早了我們的行程!

here’s us waiting for the Cable Card ride from Powell street to Fishermans Wharf.

我們坐到纜車的最後一站是Ghirardelli Square (舊金山有名的巧克力店)，經過五天的雨水洗滌，天空特別的藍，樹葉也特別的綠! 真的好幸運。你們看的到，背景還有舊金山的金門大橋耶!

碼頭邊有一間賣風車的商店，各式各樣的風車，在風中一直轉，真的很美。

We walked around and had some delicious seafood by the pier

After meal, we walked to Pier 39.

Curtis also pretended the voice of Sea Lion:

Curtis was so tired he fell asleep quickly on the cable car on our way back

On our way back, we stopped by Bloomingdale, Curtis found a little play area and start the silly himself again.

Dinner was at Alameda, Sushi House …

Shirley and Curtis was wearing the same shirt..

We spent today running around for errants and grocery shopping for thursday dinner. We also had home-made korean BBQ today at home.

Yummy…

we had marinaded short-rib, spicy port, seasame leaves, fish cake, enoki mushroom, and the daikon pickles. We used the stone plate that Mrs. Sun gave Peter and Rita last year. It worked really well.

After dinner, little Curtis wanted to help uncle Peter clean up …

This morning was a relaxing morning at home with 二姨 and 三姨.

Curtis goofed around with his superman cape again

 We baked the Reindeer Cookie we bought the other day.

it was quite yummy

In the afternoon, we paid a visit to Jade’s house. She has many animal statues in the house and Curtis specially enjoyed the little horse.

We had dinner at Pizza Chicago… which was delicious.
