Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Belated Thanksgiving!

I'm cheating because I am using a picture of my cornucopia I made from last year because
1) I didn't take a picture of the one I made this year and 2) this one looked better anyway!

I feel bad that I haven't written any posts since the first one over a year ago.  LAME, that is all I have to say for myself. 

Everybody has a story?  OK, maybe I didn't think out the name of my blog very well.  Maybe it'll end up being about other interesting people, but for now I think I'll just stick to my immediate self and family. 

Self:  Born in Iowa, grew up in MN, married my HS sweetheart Russ.  We have two daughters Keri and Kayla.  Both gals are married (Matt and Jeremy) and Keri and Matt have one son, Luke.  We are anxiously waiting on our first granddaughter, Kate, who is due to arrive sometime next year around March.

I had three brothers....Barry, Mike, and Jim.  Only my oldest brother is still living.  We lost Jim at age 27 back in 1996 and then Mike died in 1998 (38 years old).  I'll write about them later.

Luke and Mimi

So much to write about and it is hard to know where to start.  Pictures!  I love sharing pictures.   I have a special little man that lights up my life.  His name is Luke and I'm his "Mimi".  I can pretty much assure you all that you'll be seeing him in the future!  Hope it won't be over a year for my next post!

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.  Thought....what would you have today that you thanked God for yesterday?  Our pastor Rod included that in his sermon today.  Really made me think about what I am thankful for and who to thank.
