Thanksgiving

Ok, so I'll finish catch-up with
our Thanksgiving. While we weren't
able to be with all of the family, you know
how it is when your scattered all over, we
did get to have a number of us together.
We missed having Kristy, Braeden, Travis,
Tara, James,Bethannie, James, MacKenzie,
John William, who went to Ga., Chrissy, Jacob,
and John III with us.
We were able to go toHocking Hills in Ohio
and rented a couple of cabins and had
about 24 of the rest of the family together.
We did try to get everyone together,
but some had other plans or had to work
the day before or after. Donna was able to come
and Jennifer and the kids were able to make it.
We are so Thankful for our family and the time
that we do get to spend together.
There were hikes taken, long talks
together catching up, games, and old
movies from when some were young.
We also celebrated John's parents, Mary and
John's, 60th anniversary. And of course
who could forget the card games. We
had enough food for an army. I think
we took as much home as what we came
with, it seemed to multiply.
It was a great time and a very nice
setting. We went out for Thanksgiving
to Hocking Hills Culinary School, they served
Thanksgiving Dinner, it was a good meal
especially since we didn't have to cook it
or clean up afterwards, although it is always
nice to have the leftovers.I am so thankful for our good health and for the
Love that we have for each other. Heavenly Father
has blessed us with so much and we are so
grateful for all he has given us.
