What a wonderful Christmas!

I wanted to say what a wonderful holiday I had with everyone. What a special time it was. It is holidays like these that remind me of what family is really all about. As I look to start my own family very soon, I realize how lucky I am to have had such a wonderful example all of these years. I love you guys.

Great pictures, Brian! I love the "cousins in a tub" shot.

It was truly special! What a blessing to have a family that is so connected despite such distance! I just wanted to point out that Mom & Dad really seemed to enjoy our holiday together... and truly appreciated it. Several times, Dad told me that this was his best Christmas in a long time. I couldn't agree more. Despite the chaos, it was really fun to see all of the cousins enjoying each other!

Brian, It was great to see you and all of your family together. We had a great time and agree that it was one of the best Thompson get togethers. God has blessed, and you are all a great testimony for Him. We look forward to your big day in July! Love, Aunt Barb

yes it is a special time when the "whole" family can get together
Mimi's family quit getting together
when her mother died..so we don't know the cousins on that side very well but Mimi always was excited to have the family get together and have fun together so I hope we alway TRY to have our THOMPSON get togethers. I haven't been with my brothers (and i lost one brother in 2003 and there was no funeral to say bye) and sister since my mother died in 1995 and have never met some of my "great" neices and nephews. So you are fortunate to be with your family so often.

If anyone has any particularly good pictures from the party maybe they could be emailed to me for the main page? I know aunt jean took a picture of each group... those would be really good. Maybe I could even do a slide show showing each family or group??? mpmeeker@verizon.net
