Thanksgiving

"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good.  His faithful love endures forever."  Psalm 136:1

This November we enjoyed Thanksgiving celebrations with our church family, my parents in San Jose, as well as Randy's family here in town.  Words cannot express the gratitude in my heart for the wonderful gift of family at this time of year.  May I be ever more mindful of those around me that need a place to call home and a family to love them with each passing year.


Isaiah enjoyed the meal at church!


Zwiebach! Don't worry, we didn't eat all these, a friend wanted to buy a couple dozen because she doesn't know how to make them.  


Randy, Dad and Audrey went out to the Turkey Trot first thing Thursday morning, with over 26,000 others.  Randy ran a speedy 10k in under 45 min.  Audrey and Grandpa enjoyed the 5k walk.  Over 1 million dollars collected for local food banks.  Praise the Lord!


Outside my mom's kitchen window is the back wall of their neighbor's garage.  Each time the kids come visit they add more artwork to the "mural".


Grandma making a spot for Isaiah to paint.


Full and happy, thankful that I get to share my life with this guy every day!


Abi is a lot like my boys, doesn't stay still long!


At the Tech Museum on Friday morning.  They had an exhibit that let you build a flying contraption for a turkey and then they "shot" it in the air to see how far it would fly.  Very fun!



Isaac and his robotic helper...think this guy may want to take a robotics class in junior high!

Hope this past weekend found you content and thankful for all that you have!  
We are so blessed by our God's many good gifts!
