Our Thanksgiving Day

We enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving!  The morning began as Dad made breakfast for the kids and let Mom sleep in a little later than usual.  Then the fun began...the remainder of cooking that H and Mom had not done the previous day.  Tommy Turkey (we named our turkey) went into the oven.  Later there was sweet potato casserole and cornbread dressing in the oven while Tommy Turkey was "resting".  Green beans were on the stove and rolls went into the oven.  And then...it was time!


The family feast from Mom's perspective.


The family feast from Dad's perspective.
Lunch was not finished until everyone had a piece of caramel pie.


After the kitchen was clean we headed to a nearby park for some outdoor fun.  Dad and the girls are looking for a trail to walk.


Our sweet girls.  The sun in the background shows what a wonderful day we had!


The kids wanted Dad to "run the course" with them.  Do you see our monkey, E?  She's swinging from the bars in the background.


Still running...


and running...(we had the playground all to ourselves).


The view on the way home.  We saw several deer but could never get close enough to get a photo.  I took this one instead.

Thank You, God, for Jesus!  Thank You for America!  Thank You for our family and friends!

Happy Thanksgiving!
