Thanksgiving

Just wanted to say how much we enjoyed having Claudia here for several days instead of the usual quick trip. Much fun having the Porterfields too and Garth you are one very great cook. We really appreciated the time and effort you put into the dinner. We had a very nice thanksgiving. Had the big feast at Lori's where she had heated the pool and the kids all got to swim. Much fun for them. After dinner Kathi had planned a surprise baby shower for Jenny and came out with a sack ful of balloons and we all sang Happy baby shower to jen. It was the only one she had had so it really touched her. It's always good visiting with family and makes us realize how truly blessed we are to have such a wonderful family. The Lord has blessed us in so many ways and we are more mindful of it each day. True we have our adversities but that even makes us more aware of the good things. We love each one of you and only wish all of you could have been here. Love Mom, Dad, grams, gramps etc...
