Our Thanksgiving Tradition


I got this Thanksgiving idea from Angie and I love it so much! I would like to think that we have done this every year except for last year. It got put on the back burner when Eli was having his steroid treatment.

Jed's family each Thanksgiving has a tradition that each person gets 3 kernels of corn on their plate and then we go around the table and say 1 thing we are thankful for each of kernel and then we place them in a cup and pass it to the next person. I love this because each November I start thinking of things that pertain to the year specifically that I am thankful for. Angie's turkey idea gives us the opportunity to continue the tradition even when we are away from the family.

Our 3 thankful's go as follows:

Jed
1.Home
2. Atonement
3.Sports and the stress relief it provides.

Ashley
1. Mr. Romig
2. Ward Family
3. Memories

Ruby
1. Daddy plays with us
2. Savior
3. Family

Emma
1. Barbie
2.Ruby
3.Eli

Eli
1.Mommy
2.Blanket
3.Kisses
