Thankful

We attempted a chart for everyone to document all the many things for which they are thankful. The teens ended up in a war of sorts fighting over Justin Bieber and Five Seconds of Summer. Ugly things were happening on the thankful chart so I finally eliminated it. Sigh.

Sometimes we run out of places to sit.

Some of us dropped earlier than others.

I got to spend a lot of quality time with my sister because she had to come to town for a meeting last night. We slipped away for dinner before she met her clients and then she spent the night with us. Ty talked her ear off this morning while I made breakfast and she was able to offer a second set of hands preparing our annual feast. Her family arrived with our parents around noon and we immediately fell into the day of togetherness. Footballs were tossed, fields were explored, calories were consumed and table cloths were decorated. We ended the day with dessert by a bonfire while a gorgeous moon rose.

This day was perfect in every way.
