Thanksgiving day



We had a houseful of family for Thanksgiving and for that we were thankful! Holidays can be so lonely without family. Thanks to the Rolfe family and the Jeremy Lind family for making the trip!

We had ravioli and played games. Everyone signed the "Thanksgiving tablecloth" an annual tradition where anyone who is at our thanskgiving table signs the tablecloth with what they are thankful for and the year. It was fun to look back and see who we have shared this holiday with and to also see the kids as they grow and what they have written. Greta has been known to be thankful for her doodle bear, ironically she hadn't received it yet but wanted to make sure God knew she was already thankful for it. This year she was thankful for God and jesus and the cross. How sweet!

Another Thanksgiving tradition we have is to see a movie while the rest of the world is shopping the day after Thanksgiving. This year we saw "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium", which we highly recommend for those of all ages!

We enjoyed Jeremy, Karen and the kids. We feel honored that the trip to our house was the first big trip as a family. The kids are so sweet and lots of fun. Kevin and Jeremy enjoyed some concentrated brother time in the evening.
