Thanksgiving day was a wonderful day in the Gardner household! With friends and Karen to celebrate with, we had a great feast complete with pecan pie! Not Mississippi Delta pecans....but they did just fine. Turkey, dressing, sweet potatoes and green beans filled the table and we were so grateful for the fellowship, food and something American to celebrate!
Before Thanksgiving day, we were told that there was a turkey purchased for us from the U.S. commissary, a Butterball! A family from the school, their son is on the soccer team, bought us our turkey....thank you God! Well, we had a great time and thought we'd post some pictures of the day. It is different to celebrate your holiday in another country, but fun to have the day off when no one else did.
Blessings to you all and we pray your days are filled with good gifts from Our Lord.

Hey Mollie and Thomas!! My dad just forwarded me your newsletter and I found this link in there! I can't believe that you are in Austria. It must be amazing to be able to minister in such a beautiful environment. Congratulations on baby number 2, how exciting! We're keeping yall in our prayers, and I'm so excited to have found your blog!
Love,
