Gobble Gobble: Thanksgiving 2008 - Cheers to New Beginnings!

Thanksgiving at the Hayward House is a BIG BIG BIG DEAL. This year's event was the first gathering at the CHEN HOUSE in YEARS. When I say YEARS I mean it - like, 15-20 years? We finally moved back to Hayward. On this day we not only moved out our of apartment, we moved into the house and cooked Thanksgiving Dinner and ate by 8:30pm. Here's what happened!
