The thanks in thanksgiving

We Eddys have a lot to be thankful for this thanksgiving, In the last few weeks Robyn won second in a speech meet, Melissa made teacher of the year, Steve read an essay on WBBA about attending football games with his Dad and then with Ian, Miles got the lead role in his school's musical, Matt's band is doing great, Jacob had a fantastic Halloween costume, Max and Claire carved a great jack -o-lantern and Jamie and Chris and Steve helped get Obama elected! And the rest of the clan are all multi-talented, beautiful people who make their mother/grandmother proud!
Please update this with any things I haven't heard about.
