The anticipation of a yummy Thanksgiving meal!
This year it was just Steve (he's manning the camera), me and eight of our children. Justin had already moved out on his own, but he came home for Thanksgiving.
We had a nice day although, I couldn't help but wish we where able to have more people over. To me, Thanksgiving means uncles, aunts, grandparents, cousins. Both Steve and I's families are getting so large that everyone just does there own thing. My family gets together on New Years Day and Steve's Family gets together for Christmas. I was feeling very lonely this year until I thought about how in the near future, we will have daughter-in-laws and grandchildren of our own.
Check-out how much my first-born son, Justin, loves me! It's so great to have him home from his mission! As we went around the table expressing what we where grateful for, Justin mentioned that next Thanksgiving Jared will be with us too. What a great day that will be to have our two missionaries home.
