So Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving! Emily and I organized the second annual American Thanksgiving dinner and the food and company left us with grateful hearts and bellies. I didn't do a good job taking pictures since there was a lot going on with the 80 some people who showed up. I love this photo of Josiah with his plate waiting eagerly for the grub (of course once we filled his plate he had two bites and wanted to play!) Annette on the other hand ate hartily as usualy, here she is stuffing her mouth with some bread. Jason said the prayer and organized the annual putting tournment after the meal. Although nothing beats Thanksgiving with family, it was still a great day



~ Psalm 111~
Hallelujah! I give thanks to God with everything I've got—
Wherever good people gather, and in the congregation.
God's works are so great, worth
A lifetime of study—endless enjoyment!
Splendor and beauty mark his craft;
His generosity never gives out.
His miracles are his memorial—
This God of Grace, this God of Love.
He gave food to those who fear him,
He remembered to keep his ancient promise.
He proved to his people that he could do what he said:
