Happy Day After Thanksgiving

 

Cutest little Thanksgiving maiden around!!!!

 

Spent the day yesterday at our son-in-law's brothers' home and had a GREAT time.  Wonderful food and conversation.  Thank you so much, Gary and Sally for inviting us into your home.

 

 

Happy Thanksgiving

Peter took the kids and I out to dinner this evening for my birthday to the local Chinese restaurant - one of my favorites.  Then we went to church for their Thanksgiving service.  When we walked into church, they had pictures of the kids and what they were thankful for.  The pictures included these two terrific kids.  What fun it was to see their pictures.

Katie is thankfor for love, me, God, Mom, dad

Holly played "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing" on her violin and we were asked to just sit back and remember and think on all the things we have to be thankful for.  It was very nice.

We wish for each of you a wonderful Thanksgiving - stop and thank God for EVERYTHING He has brought into our lives; even the warts.  We had a very nice service tonight where Pastor Koenen told us to remember to thank God even for the cancers, worries and problems in our lives and allow Him to work through them.  It's much easier to be thankful for all the good things and whine about the lousy things.

Enjoy your turkey - I know I will.

Love to all,
Gramma and MOM
