Happy Thanksgiving - 2009



For family night, we made posters to show what we were thankful for. I had collected a stack of old church magazines and the kids cut out pictures of things they were thankful for. They created a collage on their poster and afterward we had each of them show and share their poster with us. It was so fun. It gave the kids an opportunity to practice bearing their testimonies. They were very thoughtful and descriptive about the things that they talked about. We then put them up in their rooms as a reminder about those important things.

We had a fun thanksgiving full of great food and desserts! We ate at my Mom's house and had dessert with all of Mark's family. The big kids were at their Mom's for thanksgiving this year, we missed them. Mark's brother, Alan and his family were here for the week. It was fun to spend time with them, especially since we don't get to see them too often. I also learned how to make yummy curry from my sister-in-law, Sharry.

I am grateful for such an awesome family and all of our extended family. We had a fun thanksgiving weekend. We are so blessed!
