I can
hardly believe that Thanksgiving is just around the corner; time has seemed to
go by too quickly this past year! We are currently in the homestretch of our
planning for our Splash for CF Auction and Dinner coming up on October 24th/13.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank some of our supporters, without
all of you we would not be able to pull off this event. Holland Home Leisure is
overwhelmed with the amount of support we have received from local (and not so

I know I am probably missing someone! So, if I
missed you THANK YOU!
The staff
here at HHL is looking forward to some much needed time off with our families after
the busy Summer Season. I know I am most
looking forward to having some quality time with family, creating memories that
I am sure we will share in years to come, and most likely eating far too much!
Bring on the stretchy pants!! Family and Friends is what makes time off so valuable, so I look forward to sharing those special moments with those who have a special place in my heart!
Kristi Huestis- “I am
looking forward to getting together with family and friends and eating a lot of
Turkey!”
Debby vandenHof-“I am looking forward to
Turkey, stuffing and all of the trimmings, even though I am a confessed foodie
however this simple meal is one of my favorite meals of the year! I actually enjoy
Thanksgiving more than Christmas because the focus is on family and food
without the crazy shopping that Christmas brings.”
Megan Banman-“When
I think about Thanksgiving three things come to mind, how blessed I am with the family I have, that
all my needs are provided for, and of course the food I will be consuming on
that day. Being married the never ending questions of your parents or mine? And
which day? I am sure is something a lot of people can relate to. In my family I
am happy to say my husband’s family and my family have Thanksgiving together. I
am thankful that we can get together as an extended family to consume an
amazing meal and enjoy being a family. This year my in-laws are hosting and I
can already smell the turkey cooking and thoughts of carrot cake and chocolate
pie are on my mind.”
We wish all
of you a very happy Thanksgiving from our families to yours!
