Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving or are still having one. We really had a great one - a real special one for me. Last month I came up with the idea to give back this thanksgiving and help others have a great day like we normally do and so I was able to get us scheduled to volunteer at the local Thanksgiving Dinner that is open to the entire Washington county and anyone can come and have a free meal. They normally serve around 1,500 free meals this day. We were schedule to work from 9:00am to 11:00am. It was really incredible the amount of volunteers they had there already and they kept coming every half hour. Nathan and I were doing the candied yams and then CJ joined us - Terri was able to help with the pies -- and believe it or not that kept us busy for the entire time - me and the boys got ours done quicker and kept looking for things to do - we also got the punch and lemonade made up and ready to go.
It was great being able to serve and help out. We have been blessed with so much and are so thankful for all that we have. Most especially and importantly are all of our family and friends - this is what life is all about and we are thankful to you and for you!
