Alison, Ammon, and Iris busy in the kitchen with the final preparations for a delicious Thanksgiving dinner.
There was no lack of great tasting food of all sorts. Turkey and all the traditional trimmings. YUMMM.
And pies of every sort. I especially liked, Alison's huckleberry/raspberry cheese cake,
and I noticed several other going back for seconds as well.
Recently, while working on our family history, I came across a name, which I thought was very appropriate. The lady's name was "Thankful Eborn". Yesterday as we enjoyed our Thanksgiving with many of our family members I couldn't help but think that all of the Eborn family has so much for which to be thankful. I sincerely hope that all of us are thankful Eborns. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner and everyone seemed to enjoy being together. We had Justin, Chalisa and their children, Ethan, Hayden, and Kate. Philip and Megan came and brought theirs, Garrett, Gavin, and Libbie. Alison and Ammon came with the A Gang, Addison, Avery, and Ada. Stephen and Candice spent some good time with us, even though, they were out in Smithfield at Candice's sister, Courtny's house for dinner with all of her family. They needed to be together this year, especially following the passing of Candice's mother about six weeks ago. It was a little crowded in our home but, that's exactly the way we like it, at least some of the time. We missed those of you who were not with us and hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving as well. We do have so much to be grateful for. Take a few hours and begin to count your blessings. It will help you put things in the right perspective. We are thankful for all of you and are grateful for the part each of you play in our lives. Now the Thanksgiving Day is over and we are thankful that we can go to the Temple and serve there as the people come to show their gratitude by helping others. I'm also especially grateful that I will not be participating in the "Black Friday" rampage, that is also, unfortunately becoming a part of American culture as well.
