Thanksgiving At The Farm


The family, food and fun was a hit, as usual, at the farm today. Sharing it with Angela, Ashton, and Callan was especially something to be thankful for. I don't know how my parents can produce such a feast for 30+ family members at 81 years old. The dressing, rolls, pies and all the traditional additions certainly still have the master's touch.

I didn't even touch the camera during this family time. My arms were either full of Sophia or Callan, or wrapped around my other grandsons when they slowed enough for a hug. So, I didn't get many pictures, but I'm grateful that Robin snapped a few because he, too, was inundated with kids.

Watching Thomas, Jude and Ashton play was a preview of what our sleepover will be. Plenty of noise and rough boy play. It's a good thing we are reinforced with Mother's good food. Our strength should be present. I hope Robin's sister and brother-in-law who are due to spend the weekend with us are reinforced too.

Our one good picture of the day's activities shows four generations. I'm so proud and blessed to be able to share such a picture.

I wish I could have been there. All the family together. Nothing like being small and having your cousins around (that way your not the only one to be in trouble!) Have fun tonight, just enjoy every minute of it. Robin's family will fit right in. Give a BIG kiss to Angela for me (and Randee, Ashton, Jude, Baylee, Sophia, Thomas, Candice, Cameron....WHEW!!!)

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
