Well, another Thanksgiving has come and been gobbled up. We had a lot of fun doing some grass-sledding (we pull a sled behind a 4-wheeler over grass). We ate large amounts of food, and still had amazing amounts of leftovers to take home. A few years ago Annette started a Thanksgiving Tablecloth Tradition, we have a special tablecloth and scatter a few permanent markers about the table, while you eat or as you please, people are to write the thing they are most thankful for this year. Corbin was thankful for sledding & snow (even though we had no snow at the time). Farrah was thankful for presents and for mom & dad. Annette was thankful for the new carpet in house and for new tile. I was thankful that our general stratagem this year to increase overall gratitude in our family seems to be paying off, the kids are a lot more thankful for the extra things and Annette and I complain a lot less and so are more content with what we have, it is a self-fulfilling attitude, like smiling makes you happier, expressing gratitude for everything makes you more thankful and content.
