Visits with Friends

Mark & I have not been able to go home to Minnesota for Thanksgiving or Christmas since moving to AR. It would be wonderful to be with family for the holidays, but God has blessed us with good friends to help make these days special.

The last three years, Travis & Tabitha & Zedekiah have been coming to see us for Thanksgiving.  We have a lot of fun together and are starting some special traditions now that this is getting to be a habit. Last year, we took T, T, & Z to the Square to see the Christmas lights for the first time. That outing has made it to the list of "must do's" while they are here.
We decided on two new traditions to add this year. For the first one, we are going to use the same tablecloth each year and have whoever is with us write what they are thankful for on the tablecloth. Then, they can sign and date what they wrote.  Even with only one Thanksgiving's worth of notes on the cloth, it was fun to read what everyone had to say. I look forward to filling the cloth with many years worth of names & blessings.

Writing on our table cloth.


Our other idea didn't quite come together this year.  We want to play a game with each other each year and have a traveling trophy that stays with the winners.  We got as far as the playing games portion, but did not find a suitable trophy or white elephant prize.  It's a goal for next year :)

What are your Thanksgiving Traditions?  Any ideas on a good traveling trophy?
