THANKSGIVING WITH THE BOYDS

Hello fellow Thankers. That would be people who love to GIVETHANKS...at the time of THANKSGIVING...which is reality should be 24/7.

It is that time of year when we have passed by the time of spooks and goblins... and enter into the season of THANKSGIVING and CHRISTMAS.

As some of you know...years ago...during the time when I was going to graduate school...over a period of a few years my dad and mom and uncle and Brenda's mother all passed away. Rough times...but as the word says...Weeping may endure for the night...but JOY comes in the morning.

We found ourselves without our normal places to go for THANKSGIVING. We talked about it...and decided that we wanted to give Phillip (our son) a tradition to remember....SO...we opened up our home to anyone who did not have a place to go (for whatever reason) for Thanksgiving...to come and share with us.

14 years later...the tradition continues. Each year an eclectic group of people come...and we have food, fun, and fellowship. People bring a dish...we deep fry a few turkeys, people have brought poems, skits, music...and we reflect what THANKSGIVING is all about.

This is an OPEN INVITATION TO YOU...AND SOMEONE YOU MAY WANT TO BRING WITH YOU. Here are some of the particulars:
