Happy Thanksgiving!

Because it’s Thanksgiving, and before all of the turkey jokes
begin, I wanted to tell you some things I’m thankful for...

First, and foremost, I’m thankful for a great sweet wife. She
treats me like a King even when I act like a commoner. She is such
a stalwart spouse, even when life isn’t fun or glamorous. Thanks
honey!

I’m thankful for Yahoo Groups. Where I have an outlet to share my
family experiences and hopefully make you smile. I’m thankful that
I have a place to write my family history for my great
grandchildren. And, I’m grateful that that you put up with Yahoo’s
ads, to make it free.

I’m thankful for my boys, who teach me so much about life. It’s so
strange to see yourself in their words and deeds.

And last but not least, I’m thankful for your ‘atta boy’ emails
that keep me going after almost 5 years of writing.

Thanks!

Now, I’ve got some turkey to cook!

Enjoy today’s Jokes!

p.s.
Here’s something scary I ran across yesterday
“Declaration of Independence Banned at California School”
Teacher barred from using it because it refers to God

Teacher sues for right to use documents

I just don’t get it...

from 1 parent to another...re; thanksgiving & Christmas
traditions........& aches/pains from wrestling.....take lots of
pics now because as soon as son #1 hits puberty ALL will change.
there's a 'trickle down' therory that will effect the other 3 &
not only will the 'good ole days' never be the same, but you'll
spend the next 15yrs transitioning as the rest of the nest goes
through their changes, too........& before ya know it #4 will be
off to collage in some other state & decide to spend the holidies
there instead of coming home....weather will also be a
factor...........so start prepping mentally NOW…
