• We've had a good night with our church group tonight. We thought it would be fun to share our American tradition of Thanksgiving with them so we cooked all day, had a houseful (20 were here), ate turkey and all the fixins', and shared all the reasons why we are all thankful to God.

  
  

  It was a blessing to have them here and to give Jared a better chance to get to know the people who have become so dear to our hearts.

  
  

  We will head to Tallinn tomorrow to share our actual Thanksgiving holiday with the Banks' family and the Warpole's. We plan on having some wonderful time of fellowship and fun with special friends. We might even get in a game of Crazy Canasta while we are there. Jared will also get a chance to catch up with the Bank's kids. They've been like family to all of us for many years, so it's like coming home to them as well. 

  
  

  Plans are to take Jared to Old Town Tallinn on Friday and to show him lots of other sights in our little country. He loves architecture and photography, so I know he will have a blast.

  
  

  As we reflect back on our year (what an amazing year!), we want you to know that we are so thankful for you ... for your contribution to our mission work, for your encouragement and for your prayers.

  
  

  Happy Thanksgiving ... and God Bless!
