Happy Thanksgiving from Alaska!

This is supposed to be a time for giving thanks for our many blessings throughout the year. We have a lot to be thankful for. Here is our top 10 list:

1. We are thankful for having so many loving friends and family members still breathing! (Yep as you get older that counts!)
2. We are thankful to have a nice home, even if it is in the deep freeze! (minus 28 degrees a couple nights ago)
3. We are thankful we could buy a already made pumpkin pie, because our local store doesn't carry the ingredients to make one!
4. We are thankful for the internet, cause at .31 cents a minute, phone calls just are too expensive!
5. We are thankful for the ice cleats on the bottom of our shoes. Anchorage is a long way away, and that is where you get sent for serious injuries!
6. We are thankful I found a roasting pan large enough to put the turkey in, and it cost less than $100!
7. We are thankful for frozen White Castle Hamburgers! It is our only source for well remembered fast food! Sigh....Wendy's, Burger King, Subway..... Someday
8. We are thankful for the local Taxi, too cold to walk to the store and postoffice!
9. We are thankful we don't have to live on Muktuk! (Whale skin and blubber)
10. We are thankful for everyday we have together, even though we can drive each other nuts!
