Thanksgiving

This is the only picture I took for Thanksgiving!! UGH! Taken at Lucy's school party. Our Thanksgiving was a lot of fun. We spent it with friends who graciously invited us so we wouldn't be alone. We had a really relaxing day hanging out. Our kids were entertained by the other kids and we hardly saw them. We are so thankful for friends here in Iowa.

I was talking with Jake and Alex one night and they were telling me what they were thankful for. Alex's was a very sweet list of family, God, books, and friends. Jake's was...truly a Jake thought. He was thankful for the magnetic solar rays that protect us from the harmful rays coming from the sun (ok, so maybe I didn't remember that exactly right but you get the point).
