A Family Thanksgiving

We know that a "Family Thanksgiving" is the usual for most. Being out of the country for 14 years, and living in a place where the Thanksgiving holiday is as foreign as the Soccer World Cup is for most Americans, has caused us to many times forget this holiday. Here and there we would "celebrate" this day with team members, but more times than not, in our home it was just a normal day.
This year Thanksgiving has been very special. Jonathan and Denice were home for Thanksgiving break, so we were blessed with being able to spend this day together, just the 4 of us, in family. It was "A Family Thanksgiving" in our home.
None of us know the details of what lay ahead in our lives, and being in Cochabamba, while Jonathan and Denice are in the U.S. will probably mean that we will miss spending some of these days together. That made this "Family Thanksgiving" in our home that much more special.
We trust you all were able to spend this time with your families also, and will be able to cherish this family time together, just as we did!
God bless you all!
