Thanksgiving Holiday!

I have to say a big "Thank You" to Jansen, who wanted me to blog about my Thanksgiving!

We had a great one! :) It was not the usual, traditional Thanksgiving though. What I mean by "the usual" is spending the day with our extended family members. We just had a nice lunch at home, with Mom, Dad, Tyler and Adam. Also Paul Grobey spent the day with us as well. He is one of the singles in our church that dad mentors.

After lunch, we went to the Chins house, they were having a bunch of international students over for Chinese food, and Dad gave a presentation on how our Thanksgiving Holiday got started.

As a family, we have been going through "Of Plymouth Plantation" By William Bradford. It is fantastic. A great historical account of peril, excitement, intrigue, disease, and courageous men and women striving to live out lives free to worship the Creator. We were planning on getting to the actual feasting part before the 24th, but it didn't work out. :) We are still reading, and enjoying every minute of it!
I would encourage everyone to make it a Thanksgiving tradition!

Hope everyone had a great Holiday!

In Him,
