We're always so very thankful for our bus drivers. These guys got sprinkled with some Holiday Cheer today ❤️
The first annual Jerdsgiving is officially in the books! We enjoyed a traditional Thanksgiving meal complete with all the sides, appetizers, desserts as well as sparkling apple and grape juice. Everyone named one thing they are thankful for and we also played a couple games.
