We missed Jennifer and Jared and the 3 girls! We had 23 of us at our house. The food was great and family time even better!
Here are a few random pictures of our day!

Our cheeseball turkey looked awesome Wednesday night. I put it in the fridge overnight and the crackers softened and fell off (I took this picture Wednesday night). It still tasted great and was a hit for hungry guest before the big feast!
I am thankful for many things. My family and the gospel are at the top of my list. Everything else falls into place and I am so very blessed.
I love Thanksgiving. It is a holiday that makes me stop and reflect on all the blessings in my life.
Thanksgivng is the holiday of peace,
the celebration of work and the simple life....
a true folk-festival that speaks the poetry
of the turn of the seasons,
the beauty of seedtime and harvest,
the ripe product of the year - and the deep,
deep connection of all these things with God.
