Thanksgiving

I actually got to have Thanksgiving early on Sunday with my dad's side of the family in Philadelphia. We got to see his cousin's new house and land which was very similar to where I spent Thanksgiving day.Well I went out to my aunt and uncle's land in Brandon for Thanksgiving and I spent the night on Wednesday after we had gotten our Christmas tree. To my surprise there were a lot of people already there. In fact there were probably more people there the night before than on Thanksgiving day. They were all my aunt's family some of which I had never met, but they were all gone by about 8:30. I was the only one who spent the night and got to catch up with my aunt and uncle on life and some of the stories of my first semester at MC. As always I had a great time with my little cousins and the rest of my family. I shot my 22 some, but unfortunately we didnt do any skeet shooting like we usually do. But when we said the prayer I was reminded how fortunate I am to have such a great family as well as many other things I am thankful for.
