We made it thru the day with no melt downs, OR tears! Almost everyone showed up for the pictures. Everyone lived thru my "tribute" speech. The turkey was moist and there was plenty of food left over. We had a nice visit with Rachal and Zach AND Nina and Ehren. As everyone saw in the previous blog, Madi carried Ehren around when she could get him away from everyone else! They were so cute together. All in all ,the day was a great success. My speech would not download in full, but the gist of it was that I was proud to part of all their lives. I told them that my Daddy and Mom, Mikes dad, Hank and Mom Marilyn, had done the best they could as parents and that I hoped we could say the same some day. All the "kids" are in their 20's this year-(21-29) and I wanted us all to remember this year, so our Christmas cards will be our family photo.
The last part of my speech applies to everyone, too. We all need to remember we have things to be thankful for, but most of all is ..EACH OTHER! SO...todays blog is about ME telling all readers how much I need, love, and appreciate each and every single one of you. And I'm sorry if I don't show it! XOXOXO
