GIVING AND STUFFING!!!

Well today had to of been one of my favorite Thanksgivings we have ever had. We started the morning buy heading to the Trainers house (friends of ours in our branch and Kitscoy) for a delicious pancake breakfast. Next we headed into Lloydminster to hand out flyers for our Branches Food Drive this Saturday for the Salvation Army. It is such an amazing idea and great act of service for members in our branch to deliver flyers and pick up the donations and a great service for the people of Lloydminster to give back to there community and those less fortunate. Next we headed home to watch some football and have a nice long afternoon nap. We then headed out to the Hollavine Farm (The Angevines and Hollands beautiful farm) for thanksgiving dinner. I have had some good Thanksgiving and Christmas meals in my lifetime but this goes down in the books as being the best. Aunt Shirley definitely outdid herself this year. The stuffing amazing, buns amazing, turkey devine and Mark's homemade Pumpkin Pie was a huge success. Not to mention my Chocolate Cream Pie was delicious as well. What a wonderful day simple, yet lovely. Now it is time to head out for a walk and hopefully burn off a little bit of that meal.

On a side note at the Holland and Angevines tonight the missionaries asked us to share the thing we are most grateful for this year:

Kalinda- Our Baby Girl

Mark- My Beautiful Wife (if you want clarification on this you can ask him)
