Thanksgiving At Its Roots

With two children now living in the Boston area it made all the sense in the world to spend Thanksgiving there -- yes, right there where Thanksgiving began. We've enjoyed the trips we have made to Plymouth and stepping back some four hundred years in time. Our 2010 Thanksgiving feast was was an amazing spread, shared with a number of international guests Randy and Judianne had invited into their home -- Switzerland, Turkey, China, and Bangladesh. Nobody had any difficulty cleaning their plates, or playing a little football, and we finished with an incredible sharing of musical talents.

We had a Double Bonus weekend, as we were also there for one grandson's baptism and another grandson's Eagle Court of Honor.

The Fam gathered to celebrate Isaac's baptism.

Learning what it feels like to have the Holy Comforter with you!

I don't suppose that a quilt made of fabric displaying insects, butterflies, bugs and spiders would seem like Holy anything. We give the girls a beautiful white comforter tied with pastel ribbons, but what boy would want that?!
