Thankful

Thanksgiving was extra special this year. Not only were all the Christensens together but we also celebrated my dad's retirement courtesy of Exxonmobil.





The girls loved playing with their cousins as usual and Isabelle was especially glad that she had a partner in crime with Max. We ran in the Annual Coles Crossing Turkey Trot and Black Friday shopped like usual. We played at the park, took some new family pictures and enjoyed too much yummy food. We loved getting dressed up and celebrating at Kirbys Steak House with several tables of former colleagues of my dads at ExxonMobil. The kids all did their best to use their manners and we all tried new foods we may not have eaten otherwise. It was a once in a lifetime night to hear the many kind stories and compliments that were shared as people made toasts in honor of Dr. Lee E. Christensen and I was so glad we all could be there together.

We definitely felt grateful this Thanksgiving. 2016 has been good to the Christensen family.
