There are times when I am so proud of my children that I could just burst. (and...um...in the spirit of full disclosure, I suppose that I must confess that there are times when I am not so proud. However, we are not talking about those times.)



Jessi has finished a video for one of her classes and has it posted here. (scroll down to the bottom...and if you get a second, pray for her as well.) I got so tickled at this little project but I must confess that I preferred the one with her "social commentary" attached. I suspect that would not have gotten her the best of grades, however. (You'll have to let me know if the song sticks in your head. It continues to roll around in mine.)



Jonathan's play was OUTSTANDING. (and yes, a mighty shout of relief was heard across the land when Saturday night concluded.) They all did a fine job with The Mousetrap and were very well cast. Thank you for praying. (believe it or not, we are already talking about the spring play. sigh. rumor has it that we might be doing a musical. And I'm using the term "we" very loosely.)



And now I am off to think about Thanksgiving food. Specifically...pie. (you saw that one coming, didn't you?) And dressing. My mother-in-law makes fantastic dressing. In addition to having a turkey dinner for Thanksgiving, we are also having a lasagna dinner at my moms. (with my favorite green beans. And if you think green beans don't go with lasagna, they probably don't. However, my mom is making them for me. Just me. Nobody else. Because they are my favorite. )



Enjoy the day!

We have a lasagna dinner Christmas night with salad, garlic bread, and dessert. We began the tradition about 15 years ago because I was tired of 2 turkey dinners in 1 day.

I will check out the video.

Love, Annette

I just got your comment. Do you work for Lifeway? We are going to get there EXTRA early. About 5:00 or so, to make sure that we can get the Facing the Giants DVDs. I hope they have enough. Me, my husband, my mom, and my sister are all going, and we are hoping to get 3 each... that would be 12 DVDs. I hope they have that many.

You should be so very proud of your beautiful children. They are such a precious gift in our lives! And that is some video that Jessi made. We're off to the ranch today as soon as I pack it all up! Happy happy Thanksgiving, Karen. Love, Annette
