Happy Thanksgiving

Be safe and as always, be thankful for family and friends.  I'm lucky to have the best of both.  Sorry about that, I was selfish and I got the best family and friends that a girl could wish for.  However I bet you all feel the same, so it's all good.

Here are some of the things I"m sooooo very thankful for.

For young girls like this who work all day raising canned goods for our food pantry. (in the cold two weeks ago)

For the following people who came to participate in the food drive in spite of the cold.

Below is Michelle, who I've known for years, since she was one of my 4-H members, now she's helping others.

I'm thankful for Moms who come out in the cold to enjoy the day with their daughters. Below is Kathy and Katie runnin the ribbon race.
