Thanksgiving

"

Sister Evans, Sister Stallings, Sister Woodbury, Sister Johnson and I after the feast had begun.  

We decorated, baked, carved and ate.  We had all the sisters, all the senior couples and some of their family at the Battalion for Thanksgiving.

We were on duty at the Battalion - yes, we are open 365 days a year (even Thanksgiving and Christmas) so Elder Brenchley was out greeting those who came to see the presentation.  Many people added it to their activities on Thanksgiving - some brought families after they had eaten at their homes.  Some were warming up in sunny San Diego while it was cold at home.  They came from as far away as Wisconsin and China.  

The sisters enjoyed Thanksgiving together.

Carving the turkey

Some of the sisters couldn't find their keys after the celebration.  They thought they may have fallen into a garbage can so they were "dumpster diving" to make sure they hadn't been thrown away.  Later they found them in a coat pocket.
