December Blog from Marilyn and Kay

The weather cooperated and the drive over to Nevada City on Thanksgiving Day, was beautiful.

One of the highlights of the morning was the annual “Turkey Trot.” at the high school. Mother Cheryl and several of her daughter and their spouses entered and won medals. It was exciting to be with some of our family for the holidays and joy to watch the children and grandchildren prepare the Thanksgiving Feast. Grandpa Kay went to Layne’s office to have his vision checked. I read stories and helped the great grand children with the sticker books I brought them. The Thanksgiving dinner was delightful and each member of the family related what they were thankful for.

After dinner and cleanup, we all gathered in groups to rest and relax and Jeff and Max watched an up date cartoon. It was a joy to be with a bunch of our family during the Holiday. We brought Christmas gifts for the family too. I had snowman T-shirts for the girls and we had a picture time, I loved holding the new great grand baby Eliza. Picture time was funny and fun for my scrapbook and Blog. For the guys, Grandpa Kay brought wooden boxes that he collected during the year. Families are fun and keep us young at heart. We are so grateful for the true spirit of Thanksgiving and cherish our beliefs in our Heavenly Father and his plan for us all.
Love is Eternal Grandpa Kay and Grandma Marilyn, December 2008.
