Thanksgiving

Much to be very thankful. Thank you Father for your bounty, blessings, mercy and grace!

Enjoyed a great Thanksgiving day at my sister Tammys house and she and her husband Brad treated us to a fabuous dinner feast. Great fellowship and we even took the time to read the Proclamation of Thanksgiving of 1863 by President Abraham Lincoln. It was great to listen and share the reason for the nations holiday and he mentioned God no less than 4 times to my knowledge. Crazy how our public policy has changed over time. Great time with family...

The balance of the weekend was great and we spent 2 days erecting the kids long awaited tree fort. They have been reminding me daily that it needs to be done. Well - about 75% there and we need to side it, finish roof sheating, and other trims/paint. It was a great time to show the kids fruits of labor, simple carpentry, and working together as a team. Loved it...

Sean and Amber helping to secure bracing... Safety first!

Amber has her eye protection on and appropriate flip flop attire... Wacking the nail!


View of the deck through the door. Cannot show the balance until it's complete so stay tuned... Kids are loving it already.
