It's Thanksgiving day 2008. I'm in Dallas, TX. I'm married. I'm very thankful for what God has done for me this year. Ok Ok, so I'm going to be making some green bean casserole in a few minutes and I'm going to be taking it to Buddy and Chelle's soon with my wife. Bryan, your not the only one who had an idea to post a previous Thanksgiving Day post, you just beat me to it.

i'm here at the church and the video is done. thanksgiving is tonight... well catalyst thanksgiving anyway, and i was just down in the kitchen and the smell of turkeys cooking brought back a memory. you guys ever have that happen? well i remembered every year spending the night before thanksgiving at my grandparents house. me and my grandpa would get up at like five and start cooking. i always did stuffing. we would cook and cook, and watch some of the parades on t.v. then family started showing up. my parents were usually first because we lived the closest. then my aunts and uncles would come. one year we actually cooked a turkey we raised but thats another story. my grandpa would say the prayer, and the usual thing on thanksgiving of going around and everyone saying what there thankful for. once we finished praying we ate (kids go first of course). there's nothing like your family all displaced over the house with the harmonic sounds of football as our family's background music of choice. once we were full enough to undo our pants buckles we would just relax. and time would come to wrap up all the leftovers, and head home. but even sometimes i would stay at my grandparents for some black friday shopping. thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays but it ends so quickly. the day after thanksgiving it's completetley forgotten, and christmas mania sets in. so i'm asking everyone just to take some time this year and remember all those great thanksgivings that were and are still yet to come with whomever they're with. i'm thankful for all of you guys, my great friends. i hope everyone has a great thanksgiving this year.
