Thankful

It was a pretty laid back Thanksgiving Day here in Grand Junction. We enjoyed a nice breakfast then went to work on prepping dinner. Jim did a fabulous job smoking the turkey. Janet and Jennifer worked well together preparing and serving the rest of the meal. The kids and I mostly stayed out of the way. My job would come later as I was in charge of dishes. During dinner, we all shared what we were thankful for over the past year. There were lots of laughs, a few tears, and many memories from the last 12 months. We also worked in a few card games, finished a puzzle, read a couple books and met some friends next door to play with. Thankful!
