Sarah said - " For Thanksgiving this year, we are going to mom and dad's house and spending Thanksgiving with them and with David and Amy.  We might bring along Blair's friend Daneley (as seen on left, if thats ok with you grands).  I'm grateful for my husband because he is my best friend and he does such a great job at being a provider/father/husband all at the same time.  I'm grateful to have such a beautiful, healthy, and happy baby and that I get to keep her with me wherever I go.  I grateful that I have such wonderful parents and siblings and that we all enjoy eachother so much.  Plus I'm really thankful that I get to spend this Thanksgiving with my parents because last year I had to miss out on Grampy's turkey.

Jim said - "Our Thanksgiving Plans.... We have no idea what we'll do for Thanksgiving...or Christmas for that matter. We can't even get a real tree over here. Someone told us a few years ago they did try to ship a bunch of Christmas trees over - but some fungus developed on the way over and they had to burn them all! Since no family has come forward to visit us for Thanksgiving - we might have to get some good Japanese food and start a new family tradition. It's also strange to keep up the 80 degree weather throughout the holidays. We might break down and cook up a turkey, mashed potatoes and other choice items and have some of these poor Navy Corpsmen and Marines over the house. Many of them have no family at all over here. We'll have to let you know what happens..... Jim, Tina, Joe (no longer Joey or Jono), Shannon and Molly"

Brothy said - "We are going to hang out with Grandy and eat Grampy Ernie out of house and home. I am thankful that I still have my B.F.I. job."
Judy said - "This thanksgiving, we will enjoy yummy food (especially Katies's spinach soufle' thing) with the Aitkens at our house.  It will be a fun, loud day which hopefully will end in a good touch football game. I am most thankful for my wonderful husband and children,  I feel lucky everyday to have them."  

Katie said - "For thanksgiving we are going to the Harts for lunch. If the weather is nice I'm hoping we can hang out in the street with Judy's neighbors, namely Tammy and Teresa, and go rollerblading...or ride bikes. Then we are going to Sean's parental's to eat dinner with them, as well as Aunt Kathy, George, Jane, Jane's boyfriend, Sammy, Caleb, and John. Lots of food, lots of fun. I'm sure I'll be going to bed early that night.
I'm thankful for my parents, my brothers and sisters, their husbands, wives, and children...I'm thankful for the ability to go to school right now...I'm especially thankful that I have a loving husband and a sweet, beautiful daughter.

Susan said - "This should be a good Thanksgiving. Sarah, Blair, Emily, David, Amy, Sean and Zoe will be coming to stay for a long weekend and to celebrate Thanksgiving with us. I am sure we will have a wonderful time. Amy is making her special pumpkin cheesecake and Sarah is making a wedding cake (she is practicing on us). On Sunday we get to hear David preach at our church.
I am thankful for so many things. My life has been blessed. Dad and I are still in love, we live in a great place, we have lots of close frends, we have a great church, we are busy and active and we have been blessed with wonderful kids (for the most part) - jk. and beautiful grandchildren. Our quiver is full and we are very thankful for everything God has given us."
Grandma "Grandy" Beazley said - "This Thanksgiving Locky and her life partner Lenny and their hamster, Geronimo are coming for dinner and also to stay with us for about five days. I am getting Geronimo's cage and wheel ready and shredding newspaper to catch her droppings. I have stocked up on pullups for Locky and steak for Lenny and lots of toilet paper.
We are also excited because little "brothy" and his wife, Aunt Beth are coming from Ithaca with their two kids Boo and Laquisha. Brothy got off from his BFI job for Thanksgiving and they let Aunt Beth out of the Nursing Home.
Can't wait to see them all.
Judy said - " Change of plans for the Hart family thanksgiving.  We will spending thanksgiving going to colonial williamsburg.  We are going to Cracker Barrel for our big dinner along with the Homets and hopefully the Aitkens. This should be quite an event.  No cooking or cleaning.  Yea!!!!!!"
