Over the years Thanksgiving has turned into a time where we open our
house up and invite people to join us for a time where we can stop and
give thanks for all the Lord has done for each one of us. Here are a
few photos showing our day...
The work really started on Wednesday. We had a lot of help from Luke, Noah, Jay and Stephen. Of course, after working hard on a summer day they were rewarded with a swim and ice cream.
The last few years, some friends of ours from church have offered to make the gammon, pork belly and corned beef. That has become a great addition to our feast. Each family that comes brings a side dish to share. We end up with a good blend of American and South African side dishes. (side note ... the REALLY nice pictures were taken by our friend, Charles Stander!)
the kids decided to sing a song for everyone |
This has been a year of many firsts and with that came our first Thanksgiving without Brit. We did the next best thing and FaceTimed her.
