The day after Thanksgiving

Well, here it is Friday Morning, the day after Thanksgiving. We went to Copperhill yesterday for dinner, at my Aunt's house. We actually had a great time. I truly enjoyed it, the only thing I hated about it was my father. He is such a grump. As soon as everyone was finished eating he was ready to go. I can not figure out why that man wanted to leave so bad, I mean the only thing he was going to do was go home, sit in his chair, turn the tv on and sleep until it was time to go to bed. You know that is the only thing about not being able to drive. When you ride with somebody, you are on their schedule, so when they wanted to leave whether we wanted to or not, my and daughter had to leave. We were having so much fun visiting with family and getting to kow new people as well. But I am thankful that we had such a good time, it was just sad that it had to end. Of course I was reminded of something yesterday when my cousin was saying the blessing over the food, and this is so true. But here we are a big family and the extended family all gathered together to have a meal together enjoying each others company. We could all get together and not bickering with each other like some families do. We can all put any differences we may have and just enjoy being together. Which coming to think of it, I don't think there is any difference among any of us, or at least not to my knowledge. Another thing I like to was that we could all get together and we did not have to compete with a television. There was no television on the main level of the house so people were sitting all over the place enjoying each others compnay, talking with eiach other, catching up on events on things that happen since the last time we hat gotten together. All in all it was a great day, and I enjoyed it.
Now for the rest of the weekend, I am planning to waxh clothes, put the tree up, and straighten the house up. But I read another blog before I posted this one, and even though the day Thanksgiving is over, the act of actually being thankful should continue on being thankful for what God has done in our lives and what he is going to do for the coming days ahead. God Bless
