First Thanksgiving

November 9, 2001

We celebrated Thanksgiving a little early this year for fear that Varrin might not be home later in the month.  We also had out of town visitors, Lisa & Joshua Alderson from Florida so all of that combined made us think we should celebrate early!  Boy!  Do we all have a lot to be thankful for this year.  Joshua Alderson was born January 6, 2001 while Edison followed close behind on January 9, 2001.  Our Godson Philip Guest was born April 18, 2001 and all three got to celebrate their very first Thanksgiving at the Hangar!  We were also joined by Philip's parents Paul & Tracy Guest as well as Edison's Grampy, Virgil Swearingen!  A good time was had by all!!

Thanks to Varrin for cooking such a marvelous turkey and a batch of his mom's famous (around these parts) stuffing!  The rest of the meal consisted of mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, greenbean casserole, rolls, cranberry sauce and cranberries shaped like a tin can (that's what we call it :-).  Then there were 2 yummy pumpkin pies and egg nog for dessert.  We're still stuffed!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.  We hope this year you were blessed with much to be thankful for!
