Thanksgiving

We were lucky to have our very good friend, Danny, the Jones', and Doug's sister, Jeanne, spend Thanksgiving with us. 

Danny has a been a close friend since Spokane and we have seen him at various places where we've lived, like Lacey and now here. It's always great when Air Force friends cross paths because it's usually unexpected or last minute. Danny drove from Kansas to be with us and we were so happy to have him with us for the holiday. 

The only unfortunate part about Thanksgiving is that I wasn't very good about taking pictures so this is the only one I took. I really need to get better about that!!

Each year The National Shrine of our Lady of Snows has a tour of lights called "Way of Lights" which tells about Christ's birth. Surprisingly, we live only 15 minutes from the shrine, so we have gone every year to see it and this year we took Jeanne.  In addition to driving through the lights, Fontanini comes to sign his nativity pieces the weekend after Thanksgiving. We met him last year when I bought my nativity set and had him sign it, so this year Jeanne got to meet him and have a picture taken with him. 

We had a great visit with Jeanne and it's always tough to say goodbye, but we are so happy to have the memories of spending time together.
