Thanksgiving

THANKSGIVING

This year we had an early Thanksgiving dinner with Chris' family in Harrisburg and then went to the Turkey Stuffer the next morning.  Then we drove the back roads from Springfield to Sweet Home.  It was a nice drive and a much needed time with family for me.  When I arrived at the church I was greeted with hugs and congratulations (for my 5k) and smiles. I needed that. I had felt miserable about life the previous two weeks and needed that pick me up. We had family come to dinner in Sweet Home that we had not seen in quite some time and it was so great to see everyone.  After dinner and games at the church Kathy (my cousin) invited us to stay over at her house.  We went to bed at midnight after talking forever and then at 3 a.m. my cousin Reagran, my daughter Emma and myself went Black Friday shopping. We got some good deals on things we had been planning on purchasing this Christmas so it was worth the early morning.
