Happy Turkey day! This year we were invited over to Peggy Nikolakis' home for Thanksgiving! While there we got to see JT who now lives across the bay! A few inches taller but still the same lovable boy we knew from before! We sure miss JT!
Here Meg Nikolakis (Both Kenny and Jessica's 2nd grade teacher) helped serve up Elder Russon and Elder Wright the best southern food around! Oyster stuffing, green beans, deep fried turkey, the works...
While at the Nik's home we played a little football! We met some wonderful new friends! And learned that Lisa, Kenny, and Jessica are pretty good players! Please don't ask me who won. As you see from the picture...there's still a controversy over the score!
As with every year we try to cook as many turkeys as possible and share the wonderful world of deep frying! It doesn't take much convincing. Just one bite. And as long as we are able we are determined to 'convert' everyone we know to the DEEP FRYING technique! Last night we hosted the missionaries from our area at our house for their final meal of the day! I can only imagine how stuffed the missionaries must've been by the time we all gathered at our house that night, but one sampling of our deep fried turkey was all it took!
I am most grateful for a house full of love, for elders who serve in our area, for friends who offer to come spend their special day with us, for a beautiful life, for a beautiful family, for being able to watch Lisa Nicole flirt and do it really well, for seeing Jessica come alive when she's around other people, for Kenny's quiet and sincere helping hand, and for Arnold who loves me and takes care of me and lets me have huge parties with lots and lots of people even on Thanksgiving day!
