This year was the year to spend Thanksgiving in Forest. It was alot different than most Thanksgiving in Forest. Instead of having lunch on Thursday at the house, Stephen and I help dad set up and serve Thanksgiving Lunch at the Methodist Church. We fixed take out lunch for all the city employees who had to work the holidays, people in the hospital and nursing home, in-mates, and some shut-ins there in Forest. We served lunch at the church for everyone. We probably served about 300 people. This event began about 4 years ago when a specific father's daughter had to serve time in the city jail. He wanted his daughter to still enjoy a Thanksgiving lunch. He donated the Turkey, Ham and gave $1000 to provide a Thanksgiving to not only his daughter and but also the others within the city that would also not having the opportunity to enjoy a nice Thanksgiving lunch. Below are some of the pictures from the event at the church. These pics were taken by Stephen with our new camera!!!!
After lunch at the church, we hung out with Amy (my twin) and Chris (her husband) at their house in Lake, MS. Below are some pics of them along with thier dogs - yes friends, she loves all of her doggies just like I love my Reeses and Rolo! We also got to go hunting with them. Stephen and I attempted to take pictures of us in the shooting house. Amy did kill a deer but I only killed time but it was killing time with my hubby!
