What a great Thanksgiving we had. Kimberly and Anthony and the children came over and also Anthony's co-worker Richard Harris and his wife Claudia. It was nice to finaly meet them, as I'
ve heard alot about them. What nice people! Everyone seemed to have a really great time and we all ate too much, of course. The kids were so good and had so much fun playing both inside and outside, even though it was a little damp. We've had some lovely rain!
Anthony and Kimberly furnished the turkey, and Richard and Claudia brought a homemade Apple Cobbler and ice cream. I furnished a ham and the other fixings and of course the oven to cook the turkey (Kimber's oven is broken). We also had a wonderful Pumpkin Pie that one of my Ward members brought to me. Yum-Yum. The feast was great but being together with family and friends and the laughter is what makes it great! But I sure do miss Bill being there--He would have loved the deserts!
I am so grateful for all the blessings I have recieved this year. It's been a hard year without Bill, but I have been so blessed. I have always read in the scriptures about how much God and Jesus Christ care about the widows and now I know first hand that they do, and they really watch out for us in our times of need and sadness and I'm surely blessed and am so grateful for these blessings. I'm so greateful for loving family and friends who keep in touch with me and worry about me, what would I do without you all!?! Especially Christine and Kimberly who call me everyday. Thank you all so much, and know I love you.

It was fun, and good food. We are enjoying all the leftovers!
Glad you had a great Thanksgiving. It's fun to prepare one big ol' bash a year, isn't it? Sure glad you had all the kids to brighten up the Turkey Day. Kim's kids are well behaved and I bet it was so fun watching them all and sharing stories with them.
If I lived in Mesa, I'd probably just have a turkey sandwich from the deli. Too hot to cook!!!
I'm glad you have a great Thanksgiving. We had a really peaceful one up here. It was really nice.
Love you!
Wish I could have been there :)
Glad you had a wonderful holiday.. I know Kimber enjoyed herself & the she was so surprised at how the kids behaved (like there was a question!).
