I'd have to say we really celebrated Thanksgiving the entire week, as we spent time with the kids each morning around breakfast sharing things we were grateful for and reading scriptures from the Book of Mormon that taught Thankfulness. Some of my favorite things the kids mentioned were: Eli shared he was grateful for "Jesus Christ." That was the only thing he said, but he said it every morning, and totally unprompted! Jackson shared he was grateful for hot air balloons on the fourth of July, the mountains and God's creations and Zoey shared she was grateful for blessings and prayers and family home evening. I loved starting our day that way.
In the morning of T-day, a little football for Brian. A friend I had grown up with in Texas (Jim Bassi) was in town and played ball with Brian. It was a great game...
Mostly, these pictures some it all up! A little time with family and friends:
(Brian cooked and carved the Turkey and made pies...it's great to have a wonderful cook in the kitchen!)
And that was that! We enjoyed our company and the food and the great weekend!
