Happy Thanksgiving 2014! What a wonderful day. Started out with a little flag football per the usual routine. Have to have a little Turkey Bowl. It was not well attended yet again but we had a good time with those who came. Also, no injuries to report so it was an extra special outing.
We gathered at the Brick House at 2 and enjoyed some snacks and we did some cooking and some other fun stuff. I worked on the Creole Cabbage and mashed potatoes. Patrick from across the street came with us. He had no one to spend the holiday with so I invited him along. He did pretty well. Kept conversations alive. It was an enjoyable evening for him and something different then what his family does. Glad we could have him along and that he was not forgotten or alone this year.
The food was delicious. The challenge is that there is so much and it is hard to not exit the meal feeling like garbage. We do our best but it can be tough . Anyhow, was very grateful for the day and for being able to spend it with family.
Most of all today I am grateful for our loving Heavenly Father and His son Jesus Christ. I am grateful for the atonement of Jesus Christ. I am grateful that through Christ we can return to live with our Heavenly Father again. What a wonderful blessing that is.
