This year I decided for Thanksgiving that I'd have each person write down five things that they were thankful for. I gave them each a piece of colored paper and wrote down their blessings. It was fun to read what each of them had written. I then took their pictures with what they were thankful for. Gentry wrote that she is thankful for her family, close (clothes), her pets, her friends and food.
Daxton wrote that he's thankful for his family, underwear, toilets, clothes and his home.
Brayden is thankful for his underwear, his family, house, clothes
Kristi is thankful for her Savior, her husband, her kids, a warm home and bed.
Presley is thankful for her family, her dogs, her mom and dad, Heavenly Father and Jesus, and food
Jared is thankful for his family, his job, for health insurance, his home and the gospel.
Little Hadley is thankful for her family, her home, Jesus, her dress ups, and dogs.
Makinley is grateful for her family, her home, her clothes and toilets
Easton is thankful for lots of things like, Jesus, deers, elks, bears, turkeys, dinner time and blankets
Roger is thankful for his family, for the plan of salvation, for prayer, our country and his health
I'm thankful for my family, my good health, airplanes (to fly me to Texas), my testimony and good friends.
Jake is thankful for Jesus Christ, his family, his good health, our free country and scriptures.
I couldn't read Shana's very well but she's thankful for her family
Colby is thankful for his dad and mom, Ruby his dog, his Christmas tree, Addie and school.
Addie is thankful for Ruby, Colby, her mom and dad, their house and Heavenly Father
Troy is thankful for his family, his job, the church, the sun and technology
Kori is thankful for her family, the church, her home, friends and good health.
Next Thanksgiving I'm going to bring out these pictures and read them off to everyone to remind them of what they were thankful for. I think it's a good time to reflect upon all of our blessings and be reminded of them. I know our lists could go on and on but I limited it to 5 things.
We missed Troy's family eating turkey dinner with us but they were with us in spirit. It was a great day for all of us!
