Happy Turkey Week!
We have so much to be thankful for this holiday season! God has poured out His blessings on us in so many ways through our careers, ministry, family, friends and travel. We are so incredibly thankful for two furry little creatures that bring so much joy and laughter to our lives - Pickle and Sundae! They are so sweet!

CARES Thanksgiving Dinner
We held our third CARES Thanksgiving Dinner! We had about 100 people in attendance. This event is always a ton of work - but so worth it! We have so many residents that are unable to spend Thanksgiving with friends and family, and this is their chance to celebrate. We had a ton of food and were thankful for help and support from our family and friends! The event was another success - praise God!  |

YMCA's Turkey Trot
The Turkey Trot was a ton of fun and so much warmer than last year! There were over 40,000 people in attendance. We saw several people and dogs dressed as turkeys - too cute! Richard ran 8 miles and I walked a 5K (3 miles) with my mother-in-law and friends!

Thanksgiving with Family
We were surrounded by family this Thanksgiving and ate a ton of food, as always. We had three Thanksgiving celebrations - Dallas, Tyler and Nacogdoches. Our poor little Pickle ate rat poison on Thanksgiving night. We rushed her (and Sundae) to the emergency vet to have their stomachs pumped. Sundae was fine, but Pickle's tummy was filled with rat poison... she is now in recovery and on medication. Our poor little girl - we are so thankful God is watching over her!
