Thanksgiving Birthday


This Thanksgiving was great! We were able to combine Bob's 83rd birthday and Thanksgiving together. What better thanks could we ask for than to have so much family to share it with.
It started with a visit from Carie and Joey on the 24rd to the 26th. Joey played Frisbee golf with Carie, EJ and the Dog Horde, Carie helped EJ clean Guinea cages and make shell jewelry, and we still had plenty of time to sit around and visit.
Bobby drove in on Saturday afternoon and Debra made it home by around 5pm with more food to feed an army. We commenced to prep and cook as much as we could before Sunday, the Birthday Boy's Feast.
We had turkey and the whole kit-an-kabootle. Willeta and Fred came in about 10? Sunday, bearing pies galore then Jennifer and the Girls a little later, followed by Travis and Kelly and their two girls.
We were seated around the table for the meal. When everyone was finished we lit the candles on Bob's cake and sang a very loud rendition of Happy Birthday. Bob blew his candles out and we all cheered and clapped. The sound was incredible in that it was filled with so much love that it was almost overwhelming.
Yeshua, thank you so much for our blessings; our family. Please increase our times together!
