Thanksgiving in Texas 2007

After being in Ohio for the past 3 years on Thanksgiving, it was a blessing to be able to be with our Texas family this year. (Even though we missed our Ohio family very much! I guess we always miss whatever family we are not with at that time).

A blessing about Thanksgiving in Texas this year is that everyone was able to come, even cousins who live in Los
Angeles who don't make it home very often!

As for the weather, I think that God does have a sense of humor because it was pretty cold (40-50s) on Thanksgiving Day. And, by later in the afternoon during the Cowboy's game, it there was SNOW! It didn't snow as much as Ohio or accumulate on the ground, but I do think that God wanted me to have a taste of home.


During the evening on Thursday, we got together with Grandma & Grandpa Herd as well as Amanda's parents at Billy & Paula's house to celebrate with this side of the family. Later in the evening we played some serious games of skip-bo, which is always fun.

Hope y'all have a blessed rest of your weekend! More
pictures, etc to come in the next few weeks, as this is a busy time of year. Take care!
