Happy Thanksgiving!

We’ve been invited to share Thanksgiving by the pastor at our next project in Satellite Beach Florida with his family, and he had suggested that we arrive there Wednesday afternoon.  Tuesday we drove over halfway there, stopping outside of St Augustine, and allowing for an easy 155 mile drive today.  This morning I’ll be making Chocolate Éclair Ring for tomorrow’s dessert.  It will be a little bit of a slower day.

Dr. Joe (the minister in Satellite Beach) is making 3 turkeys in the fryer; two for other local families.  Bob will be helping him with that.  Also, on Saturday Dr. Joe will be helping another local church to set up a Christmas display and Bob and I will help with that.  The other members of our project will be arriving on Saturday and Sunday.  There will be 7 of us eventually.

As hoped for, we caught up to the warmer weather.  Yesterday’s high temperature here was 70 and the overnight low was 55.  The long range forecast for Satellite Beach is for highs in the 70’s and lows in the 50’s.  Finally – we can sit outside and enjoy the weather!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our friends and family!  We sure miss seeing everyone – Thanksgiving has always been Paige’s favorite holiday.  We’ll be thinking of y’all (the southern influence!) and will be looking forward to our visit home at Christmas.  Have a good one!
