What a wonderful time to spend with family. You are so right, before I got saved thanksgiving day was not just about being thankful but "my football" game was the focal point of the day.. But when JESUS comes into your heart ALL that changes.. Oh what a wonder HE is... Such a joy to spend with friends and family and tell how thankful you are and for what HE does in our lives... We spent it down at Gospel Center Camp this year and we SO enjoyed ourselves to be surrounded by good people and in a good campmeeting.. So glad you had such a wonderful day, I had the chance to spend a few mins washing dishes yesterday with your dear ML.. She is such a good woman, I so admire her! Love and Prayers to you and your family.. Keep in touch!
I'm so happy you got to spend this Thanksgiving with family. It would have been nice to have been there. Your family feels like family to us. I love the pictures. love you tons
The beautifully set table, and then, all of you sitting around that table was such a gorgeous sight. I love how your family works so hard to make a pretty table on which to eat special meals.
And, I loved seeing the pretty piece of Pumpkin pie with the decor of a fall leaf crust on top of it. You and your mom are something else when it comes to details!
I know just how Elijah felt when he was eating that Pumpkin pie! I can just lap up the filling and the crust too!
It was wonderful seeing all of you in these pictures! And, Elijah looking up at his Aunt Laura at the piano is such an adorable picture!
Oh how I love you guys!

Dear Heather, I so enjoyed seeing all of your Thanksgiving pics! I love seeing the way your family does things. My apologies for not commenting in so long. . . Sometimes I am lazy, and sometimes the computer has problems. :-( Just wanted to let you know that I often "check in." Wish we could have been in AZ at the same time. (My in-laws purchased tickets for us to come after Christmas.)
I also wanted to let you know that I am so excited about the motor home!!!! I just about cried tears of joy over that post! Blessings on your travels. Love you!
Happy Birthday to Sarah yesterday!
It was nice seeing y'all the other day. The music was wonderful! I told Sis Manley that I wanted one of those songs... do you have a CD of those? So enjoyed having you at our church... you have a special family! Thanks for the book and for praying for us!
