Thankful

Could my nephew, James be any cuter?  He’s such a good little boy.  I wanted to take him home!!

 

Backyard fun at Uncle Rich’s.

 

The girls loved raking leaves and wanted Uncle Rich to give them more jobs.

  

 

 

 

 

I guess it’s true what they say…  you never forget how to ride a bike! 

 

 

 

 

 

After hosting Thanksgiving for 5 years straight, I feel like I got off easy this year.  My brother did all the cooking and all we had to do was drive and bring dessert.  The Lord must have known how preoccupied I was going to be, just days before the holiday. 

My brother brined the turkey this year and it was so delicious and moist!  All the food was terrific.  I definitely feasted!  Best of all, it was just wonderful to be around my entire family. 

We have so much to be thankful for.  I could write pages and pages…

I love Thanksgiving and everything it represents.  No presents, no frills…  just faith, family, and food.  Generations coming together, sharing a home-cooked meal, saying a special prayer of thanks for God’s undeserved mercy and love, His abundant blessings, and His faithful providence.

Hope your holiday was filled with special memories!
