My friend couldn't make it for Thanksgiving last year. My family and I felt let down about it.

Sometimes things come up. It's hard to travel during the holidays. Especially if your friend has kids.

That's true and although I do understand his reasons, it didn't change how deflated we felt about it. We really looked forward to their visit.

Maybe this year will be different.

Let's hope. It'll be nice to see him and his family.
