Thankful

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I hope everyone had a great day with family and friends. Lowell and Donna came to our house from Michigan to share in our feast. This year I bought a fresh turkey....19 pounds! I have never had to wait longer than the time allotted for a turkey. This was a stubborn turkey! But it was o.k. because I kept busy making some new side dishes I had read about in Rachael Rae's magazine. Everything turned out very good! If I do say so myself! :-) We are so thankful for all that God has blessed us with. I always get kind of sappy around the holidays. But this year it seems especially noticable. We have some friends and family that are going through some crud right now. As we pray for them we are drawn to each other and very appreciative that our marriage is solid. We have many other things to be thankful for but without a solid marriage and stable home for our children, life would not be the same. I am very Thankful for my God and the strength He gives us to live faithfully in so many areas of our lives.
