Thanksgiving in the Mission field was a bit different. For one it wasn't even a Holiday in Canada , but the 18 of us from the USA made it a holiday here. We all have so much to be thankful for especially for the families at home supporting us. We love you all and miss you tons.

Of course the Dad had to carve the turkey, both of them. We consumed 36 lbs of turkey and 20 lbs of potatoes. Fifteen Elders with bottomless pits, and 7 Sisters that enjoyed home cooking without a spanish flare. We had a great day hope yours was great too.
