Giving Thanks!

Thanksgiving was quiet at our house this year. Just the four of us and Rob's Mom. We had all the traditional fare (turkey, in-the-bird stuffing, cranberry stuff, mashed potatoes) and, boy oh boy, was it GOOD!! Bo only asked for one thing......apple pie. I asked him to help me with it and Anna had to join in, she couldn't be left out in the cold!!
Then she just wanted the apple.....forget the pie!! LOL

Then my son did something that touched us....we found him in the scrapbook room folding little slips of paper. He asked if daddy would take him on his bike with his backpack full of "cards" and deliver them to the neighbors....
which he did.....to every house! He put all of the cards into his backpack, got on his bike and went to every door. He knocked and if someone answered, he handed them a "card" and said Happy Thanksgiving! Rob said he went to about 20-30 houses. Some people were home, some were not, but he was bound and determined to tell everyone Happy Thanksgiving!
