Thanksgiving 2013

On this day I give thanks especially to my family. I love you all! You have blessed me and my family with such wonderful memories and great times when we can be together.

Things I miss;
- The entire family around Mom's table with every good, hot food at the ready.
- The Turkey Bowl
- Brothers imparting their wisdom and knowledge on me…and one particular Brother making us laugh with repeats of funny movies.
- My Sister's love, listening and continuing of traditions.
- My Sister-in-Law's and Brother-in-Law's perspective on lots of things.
- The Black Friday round of par-3 @ Yingling's w/the guys…especially when Number 1 Son is with me.
- English Muffin bread.
- Grandma Utz's potato chips.
- Having plenty of room to keep drinks cold 'cause it is so freakin' cold they sit on the back porch and still stay cold.
- Mom bagging up leftovers for the trip home.
- Mom.
- Most of all I miss the warmth there always was when we had so many people and so much love filling any house we occupied.

To all my family; I hope you know I will always love you no matter how far apart we may be. I take great comfort in the love I know you have for me and our family. I hope some of these memories make you smile.

To all my friends, I give thanks you've let me be a part of your lives. You make me a better person.

To God be the glory and on this uniquely American holiday, may we all give thanks to God for all His blessings.
