Thanksgiving Holiday

Hello Everybody,
Thanksgiving has come and gone again. My family and I were able to spend it with my extended family--dad,mom,brothers,sister,etc. I was expecting the norm and it was pretty much the same. There was a couple of encouraging moments. The most profound was my older brother talking about what love is--what the bible says love is--and continues to relate those attributes to his wives character and how he sees this love in his wife--in tears of course. It really blessed my heart that my brother took the opportunity to share this about his wife. It was also nice to get more of a chance to talk with my sister and her new husband. I don't feel like we--my family has had to many chances to spend time with them--or able to.

Worst thing about the dinner was the turkey was as small as a chicken and i wasn't able to make a pig of my self eating it. The other option was ham and plenty of it--no thank you! The best was my wife's oatmeal whole wheat dinner rolls and next to that was mom's cream corn. Everything was good though, and I am thankful for the evening.

I am hoping that we are able to create some good memories with the Ythier family next year. It has been quite a few years since we have had Thanksgiving or Christmas with them.

About thinking. The only thing this really challenges you to think about is the memories you are creating with your family--all of it. To God be the Glory.
