Thanksgiving at Whistler










Last weekend was Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada.  The students had a week off so most of them headed home.  We headed to Whistler - along with the Hall Family, the Lemon Family and a couple of 'extra's'.  We stayed 3 nights in a very fancy apartment/hotel type place.  We really enjoyed it (I didn't want to come home)!  On Friday evening we had a combine Thanksgiving meal with the Hall and Lemon families.  Yolanda organized a room in their hotel that we were able to have our meal in.  It was a great evening - made up of wonderful food, great company and lots of fun.  To finish the evening off we watched The Gathers - Thanksgiving DVD, on the very large TV in the room.  
Thanksgiving is a great time to stop and reflect on all the blessings we have received throughout the year and to give thanks to our Lord!
