Thanksgiving- Mbita Style

Thanksgiving Day was a pretty typical day for us, but at the end of it I shared a great meal with my neighbors and fellow missionaries, the Cochrans. The traditional turkey was replaced with the readily available fresh fish from Lake Victoria so we enjoyed some great fish fillets along with mashed potatoes and cabbage. Delicious! Before eating, we sat down and each shared five things we are thankful for. Mine were:
1) great neighbors (Steve helped to fix up my new house and Judi cooks great meals)
2) my new house
3) a nice, reliable vehicle
4) the chance to be involved with sports by coaching the girls football team
5) an incredible family back home that is always supportive
