What Counts The Most

Thanksgiving.....

"It is not what is on the table the counts

as much as who is on the chairs"

Three out of the past four Thanksgivings have been spent

in Gainesville, Florida at our favorite

"All You Can Eat"

Thanksgiving Buffet

When given a choice, my favorite thing to "make" for

Thanksgiving Dinner is....Reservations!

Being with people I love is the most important detail of

Thanksgiving. I wish all of my children and extended family

could be together for Thanksgiving, yet as everyone

grows up and is scattered across the country, it becomes

less and less of a possibility. I am grateful I could spend

Thanksgiving Day with loved ones.

Ahhhhhh....
After Dinner, it is time to take the
"I am happy and beyond full shots"

My dad and mom joined us for dinner and then a spirited game

of Phase 10...what else did you think I would say?

This morning, rather than hit Black Friday sales, we left

Gainesville and headed to Orlando. Katherine and Megan got

to spend the afternoon with Grandpa and Grandma while

Ron and I went to the Orlando Temple.

Attending the Temple is the PERFECT start to

The Christmas Season.
