Overdue!

Well, my post from our Thanksgiving celebration is long overdue. We have definitely moved on to Christmas, but I will give a quick overview. We enjoyed time with family and serving those in our community over the Thanksgiving weekend. While we were serving, I was touched by how God uses us, right here and now, in our own circumstances to minister to the physical and spiritual needs of those He places in our path. One of the highlights from the weekend for me was singing praise and worship songs that were compiled from a list of family favorites. Thank you Sherry! I am excited to see how the idea grows each year. And of course the traditional game of "Oh Shister." Watch out Matt! You are a target now! And... watching Home Alone which has also become a Thanksgiving tradition. Isaac enjoyed watching the big Ohio State v. Michigan game because he had lots of support from cousins, Aunt Sherry and Uncle Dale!!! Oh....good food, too! Can't forget the food!!!

turkey bib. Mature! He thought he was missing out on something.
