HAPPIEST THANKSGIVING

Another Thanksgiving - and so many things to be thankful for - - -

Family -- grandsons -- children -- friends -- health -- rain -- sunshine -- peace and quiet -- a new house to celebrate in -- good food - oh so many, the list goes on and on.


We won't be having the big crowd this year - just Don and me, our oldest daughter and her family (Ben's family) - and his other grampa. A nice size crowd, and a huge turkey to be eaten. Our daughter will be helping with the cooking of the feast - and we will all be helping with the eating.

Our menu---

Turkey
Stuffing
Massed Potatoes
Gravy
Yams
Baked Squash
Green Bean casserole
Home made rolls
Pickles

Deviled eggs
Stuffed celery
Pumpkin Pie
Bumbleberry Pie (blackberries, blueberries, raspberries)
Apple Crisp

and a good nap!!!

Two of our "kids" and their families are in Virginia (visiting) and West Virginia (living there) - and we will miss them so much. Brother (WV) and Sister (VA) will be visiting each other some time during the holiday so that warms our hearts - though we wish we could all be either there or here, together. Some years are just like that - we have to learn to share. :-)

We are so thankful for all that we've experienced in our 44 years together - our family and friends - our adventures and our quiet times - our visits and trips - a wonderful trip together.

May your holidays be special - with those who are special to you.
