I Am Thankful
Well "Praise God". We had a wonderful house full of children and grandchilren for our Thanksgiving Dinner.
We ate pretty close to 12:00 (noon), about 12:45 actually, but it gave us all enough time to eat and Thomas enough time to enjoy the family and get to work on time.
We had more food than we could all eat and that was wonderful. Our grandchildren (execpt Jacob, he is too little yet & Christian, he was with his mom and was missed) were all out side playing and having a wonderful time. It made my heart swell to heart children laughing and giggling in our yard again. We have got to get something for them to play with out there. But I must say they did pretty good with just each other and a couple of balls that we have in the yard.
Joy, Angela and Reba out did theirselves with the food that they brought to go with my ham and potatoes. I ate so much I did not even want supper. Grandpa, Danny, Thomas and James did their best to give us all a hard time and yet they did not even turn on a TV set. I am proud of them. We laughed and carried on and then sadly, each of them had to head on out to their own homes and get on with their lives. I was very thrilled that Danny brought his camera and we got some family photos, before Thomas had to go to work. I have not seen them yet, but I know I will soon.
After my children and grandchildren left, we rested about an hour and then we took Grandad some chocolate pie that Jessica helped her mommy make and some pumpkin pie that Angela made. Grandad ate the chocolate first and all gone right away. He said that was the best chocolate pie he had eaten in a long time. He saved the pumpkin pie for the next day. He was still pretty stuffed from lunch with RoRo, Jana, Sara, Jon and his girlfriend and then he ate dinner. I can understand him being so stuffed...lol
Returning home was a little sad when we walked into a quiet house, but I have to be honest, I was asleep before my head hit the pillow, once I got the kitchen cleaned up and stuff put away. We all still fit in this little house. I am thankful to God and all of my children and their children for filling our home with so much love and so many memories!
Memories were made.
