THANKSGIVING
 Here is a picture of the gang from Thanksgiving. 
This year was Jason's family's turn so we traveled down to Napavine and
celebrated the holiday, what a great time had by all.
I emailed dad up in AK to provide us with a holiday blessing that I could share before the meal.  This is what I received...
"As we gather here for this special day we would like to thank God for the 4 F's...
food, family, friends, and last but not least....FOOTBALL.  God's neat, lets eat"
Thank you dad for those special words, not only did they bring a laughter to the room,
it made me feel like you were there with us to celebrate a great Thanksgiving!
