Thanksgiving happenings!

Oh my favorite holiday of the year! Thanksgiving! Turkey, family, pies, and lounging! So, I know that I have not blogged for a long time, and I feel like I have really neglected my blogging. So, what better time to start than with a great holiday of Thanksgiving. I have been home for almost 7 months. In fact, today is my two year anniversary of starting my mission. It was 29 November 2006 that I left home for the wildest adventure I have had thus far in my life.

A lot of stuff has happened since May. Recinos came home (trip to AZ), found job, started school (yikes!) and lots of new babies and engagements--not in that order. Very fun.

Thanksgiving was GREAT! I think I ate way too much, but it's not Thanksgiving if you don't stuff your face, eat pie and play a round of Trivial Pursuit. Although Marilynn and I were not crowned the champions this year (Erin and Greg were champs, even with answers like Greek Orthodox Jews), we still had a lot of fun.

Well, this is the first of many posts. I'm sorry I have been absent for so long for anyone who missed my blogs.
