Date: Monday, November 24, 2008 through Friday, November 28, 2008 (N flew in to join us on Tuesday. Hurrah!)
Location: Trumbull, CT
Weather for the week: some rain, some grey skies, some blue skies. Temperatures 30's - 50's. But sadly - No Snow!
C's parents graciously let us park in their long flat driveway and plug into their garage, thus extending their house to include a little guest suite. Who would have thought that J & N would opt for the real beds and close by showers of the indoors?
Some scenes from Thanksgiving:
A Table Set for 19.
The first course, Mom's Pumpkin Soup.
Thanksgiving entertainment
Brothers. One trying to slim off the turkey dinner.
A portion of the family clan
M says, "Forget the turkey... Bring on the Mac and Cheese!"
Our thanksgiving hymn we sang this month says,
Come, ye thankful people, come,
Raise the song of harvest home;
All is safely gathered in,
Ere the winter storms begin.
God our Maker doth provide
For our wants to be supplied;
Come to God's own temple, come,
Raise the song of harvest home.
What a blessing it was for us to travel to CT this year to be with family and to make new memories. We are truly thankful that God our Maker does provide for our wants to be supplied. We have seen it over and over this past year and look forward to seeing more testimony of His provision in the coming year.
