Many things to be thankful for...

Well another Thanksgiving shared with my Ranch family. We all were blessed by an annual group who has been faithfully coming to the Ranch to prepare all 50 of us a delicious Turkey dinner with all of the fixings. I was thinking about many different places I have experienced Thanksgiving (Spain, Cancun, Canada, Whittier/CA, Coeur d' Alene/ID, Friday Harbor/WA, Louisville/KY, and Aspen/CO). In all of these places I have enjoyed a great meal with friends from all over and with each Thanksgiving the best thing shared are the memories. I appreciate Thanksgiving this year because we had several of our staff's family come share their favorite part of the holiday. It is always a great time to reflect on the numerous blessings that God has given us all. This year I am just privileged to be surrounded with people who share the joy of serving others. I love my job and I am thankful that I get to love on 31 kids everyday. I wish everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving with the ones. Giving thanks each day!
