A Little OF Our Thanksgiving...

Thanksgiving this year was a wonderful time of family, FOOD, friends and fellowship. We went to my sister in laws home, her husband is from Greece. The photos on the walls, my sister in law took in Greece and they had them put on canvas. The photos I took do not do them justice at all. Please click to enlarge.
Dinning Room........isn't it beautiful?The little balcony is the master bedroom looking down on the dinning room.
The back of the house, and it's on a lake! Probably one tenth of the food. (Could not resist photographing the turkey, ham and lamb)
Me and hubby sitting out back.
Amanda Chalae' made it home for Thanksgiving..............what a nice surprise!
Right before the Blessing, giving instructions that there were more tables on the upper balcony.
Our five little ones enjoying each other's company. (Apparently he is holding the audience captive, he is out numbered)
Hubby's great niece stuffed her pockets full of acorns for a acorn fight with her dad.
Did not post all of the photos, some are gifts, you get the idea of the love filled time we had. God Bless.

It is peace in Mumbai at last.
Thank you for all your prayers and good wishes.
Pray for all those who lost their lives and may God give strength to their near and dear ones to bear their irreparable loss.

What a fun post to read! I did enlarge the pics, and can't pick a favorite. What a neat idea to put those pics of Greece on canvas!
