Today I am thankful for Family and Thanksgiving. My mom has her Thanksgiving the Sunday before Thanksgiving to give our bellies time to digest before we gorge into more turkey. Really the main reason is that way we can all be together, but the other is true too.
We usually sit around and each say what we are thankful for each year, but since there are so many of us, mom said this year each family could delegate someone on behalf of the whole family.
I naturally was the spokes person for our family. I can't wait until Lil Hoff can talk on command.
I also am thankful of this family picture. It is really good of my family. Besides Lil Hoff's shiner.
I also was on dessert duty which is always nerve wracking for my family. The only thing worse would be main dish duty and being the only main dish. But I had success! I made a apple pie and a pumpkin cheesecake. The apple pie was gone and I only had a couple of pieces of the pumpkin cheesecake left.
I am also thankful the heirlooms. The dish the pumpkin was in is a ceramic dish my Grandma made and gave it to my mom who has passed it on to me. I love being able to put a pie in it and think of my grandma and think if she was here with us today what she would be saying or if she would be proud of all of us.
