Well we had a great Thanksgiving here in Charleroi...all of the American's went over to Wes' teammate Andre Riddick's house where we had turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, baked mac n cheese, stuffing and tons more...we brought potatoes, pumpkin pies, and our signature fruit pizza to the feast. Our desserts were a hit! It was a really fun night, ofcoarse we missed everyone back home but having a big American Thanksgiving over here definatley made it easier on us! :)
Wes got home from Turkey on Wednesday where he played another ULEB cup game...he had an awesome game, where he scored 16 points...he shot 4/4 3's, had a dunk, and 2 freethrows..all in all a pretty good game! Then just yesterday he had another great game against Gent..with 25 minutes of playing time and 11 points!
While Wes was in Turkey I got a chance to go to Amsterdam with one of my American friends from Aalst. Elise and I had a blast! We only stayed Monday through Tuesday night but it was still a vacation! It was nice to be in a place where pretty much everyone speaks english..a lot different from Charleroi...
We just got back from a fun day in Gent to see John and Suzanne Turek.. we went to an all you can eat rib joint...which has the best ribs in Europe I think! We were supposed to go to a movie but I guess with how long it took the guys to eat all 52 racks of ribs we missed the movie we wanted to see! LOL!
Well I guess that's all that's going on here for now..I have TONS of french homework to do before tomorrow..yeah, i know..nothing like waiting till the last minute! We are super excited to come back for Christmas..and we are in the process of having the travel agent book a different flight that gives us a longer layover so we don't have a repeat of lastyear... it shouldn't be a problem..we are counting down the days!!
I'll try to get a schedule posted of all of Wes' games soon! He has another ULEB game on Tuesday against Spain so I'll let you all know how that goes.... hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!! Love you guys!
