From Rachel

Thanksgiving

Hi I’m Rachel (Carrie & Randy’s daughter.) You’ve probably heard a lot of stories of me from my mom. Yes all those stories are true about me, but I don’t like to go around saying did you know that I’m the president? That’s something I’m thankful for though. I know God gave me all these gifts and I’m very happy he did too!

As you know next week is Thanksgiving, and for my family we’re going to My Nene & Papa’s house (grandparents) also on Tuesday at school we have Colonial day for the 5th graders. So For that day the 5th graders dress up as pilgrims/puritans, but that’s not all after recess/lunch (about 12:30) fr the rest of the day we get to do all sorts of things like make candles, quilting, making applesauce, I think even making jam! At my Nene & Papa’s house Graham and I finally get to go down to the pond all by ourselves! We built a fort last time we were there at thanksgiving.

Most of all I’m thankful for God, my parents, my friends (especially Shelby, hoping she will get better from the whooping cough), and things I have been given or blessed with.

What are you thankful for?

I'm thankful for Stan and little Abby and for friends like your momma who bring me McDonald's when the craving just won't go away!
