oops

I did have intentions of carrying out the 29 days of giving.  It is not that I have not given anything or given thanks for things, I just have not kept track.  It was an eye opener.  I do have lots to give, lots to give thanks for and I do receive a lot from others.  God gives a lot too.  I have a lot to be thankful for.

Thanksgiving was very nice with Mom, Kelly, and her crew joining us.  Joe was even home.  Tim was home for the week.  It was a very nice day and I think one that was enjoyed by all.

Tim and I made it skiing the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.  Not much was open at Copper Mt. because they were trying to get ready for the Thanksgiving break.  I enjoyed the groomed easier runs.  I got new skis last year but really did not get to use them much and I was able to appreciate them that day.

Tim is in AZ and will be coming home around the same time Zach will roll in.  Ted comes home on Saturday and I am not sure when Joe will be home.  We have a ski trip planned while all the kids are home and then Christmas will be here.

The Dog and Duck Yard is hosting a New Years Day open house get-together.  I am looking forward to having a house full of friends and family.  Years ago some friends that we had known in Germany lived here and started a New Years Day open house and we enjoyed it so much that we decided to carry on the tradition.

I am thankful that I was able to be at the church today and help with the food after Mass.

Have a Grace Day.

I'd like to say that I'm so very grateful for your unending friendship. Thank you for the support, though the good/bad/and ugly, you guys have been there. Love you for that! Good friends are a rare thing in this life, you are one of the best, even though we can only find time rarely, I so enjoy it. If there isn't an epic blizzard, I'll see you next Saturday!
