wish you would know this to day for I know you was looking for a letter this
morning.

recived your welcome letter that you wrote last Sunday I am glad you think off
me wherever you are and I am to thankful to hear you are feeling find it sure

We enjoyed
Thanksgiven dinner FO and family came home at 10 a m Annie had made the best
Pumpkin pie and a big fruitpudding before they came and she fetched it with her
off course I knew she was to bring it we clubbed togather and I was to furnish
the rest I was sure a buisy woman for a while and the dinner was ready at 12 30
A m and as we were all were both hungry and tired so we were glad to have
dinner early your Dad and F.O. Washed the dishes after dinner while Annie and I
talked and watched the childfen I was dissapointed because Grace could not come
home. our dear Joseph of old been here for dinner to day he came to help Dad
haul straw for to put on the boards above or between the stable and the roof so
to keep the cold out from the animails, FO’s finger is much better now so he
