I'm home! I'm home! I'm home! It's so wonderful being back in the pretty mountains, seasonal weather, and fresh air!!

We might argue about politics, football, and the price of rice in China...but when it comes down to it we have so much to be thankful for. I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Thanks BigMike and Happy Thanksgiving to all, as well.

We'll be making the 5 hour trip to the in-laws at 0600 tomorrow.

I learned my lesson many moons ago on traveling "Thanksgiving Eve".

I won't have any interwebz for the next 4 days, so you all be safe and enjoy your time with friends and family.

The tail end of my trip schedule is definitely planned for making it back to the house for kickoff on Sunday. GO SKINS!

Anyone in the mood to critique my Thanksgiving Dinner prayer?

Oh Heavenly Father, we thank you for bringing us together on this Thanksgiving Day;

For providing us with food, shelter, and each other.

We appreciate all the time You have given us together and

We ask that you give us many more gatherings as a family,

Every moment of our lives together is a gift;

May we use this food before us to strengthen our bodies

And may we use this time together to strengthen our family bonds

Thank you for all our good fortune.

In Jesus’ name we pray

Amen.

Sounds good. :applause: That's a better grace than I have ever attempted.

I was actually thinking of using the 'Meet the Parents' grace. :silly:

Greg Focker:

O dear God, thank You. You are such a good God to us, a kind and gentle...and accommodating God.

And we thank You, O sweet, sweet Lord of hosts...for the...smorgasbord...You have so aptly lain at our table this day...and each day...by day.

Day by day by day. O dear Lord, three things we pray.

To love Thee more dearly, to see Thee more clearly, to follow Thee more nearly...day by day...by day. Amen. Amen.

I had to cheat a little bit. I found a generic prayer on-line and made my own changes to it. But you should definitely go with the MTP prayer (and get video as well)

This is a really tough Thanksgiving on a lot of levels... but I'm SO thankful to have custody of my son, to have a great job, to have my Varsity Baseball team and to have such a supportive family.

I hope everyone has a great day, you guys have really helped me through a difficult time and I really appreciate it.
