For Thanksgiving this year, we were happy to have Dad's parents come out for the weekend. Our Thanksgiving tradition is to go around the table and have everyone say one thing that they are thankful for. Here is what everyone was thankful for this year.
Dad - God's grace towards undeserving sinners
Mom - all of God's beautiful creation
Grandpop - thankful for the fact that his parents were both saved before they died
Grandmom - "her sweetheart, the most wonderful man in the world"
Sarah - the privilege of prayer
Rebecca - her salvation
Matthew - freedom
Ben - "my dirtbike"
Rachel - fishing
Hannah - "my life"
Lydia - everyone's birthdays
Joshua - Daddy (with a little coaching from the afore-mentioned person!)

(Matt apparently felt the need to be in the picture too!)
~A large family requires a large turkey!~
~Dad carving our twenty-three pound turkey~
~Even a twenty-three pound turkey doesn't last long when there are thirteen people to feed~
~Everyone except for Grandpop-he was taking the picture~
~Clean-up~
