We Are Thankful!

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you've had a great holiday, we sure have around here! It's been a fairly low key day and aside from the Little One having a "tummy ache" for about 2 hours while my Mom & I finished cooking and throwing up once today we had a wonderful day! My poor baby felt just awful for a while, but somehow after she got sick she perked up and was her usual self for the rest of the day. She's always a trooper, sick or not. Sometimes we don't know how sick she is since she just doesn't complain or act "sick".

Anyway, my Mom & I cooked a huge spread for the 5 of us, and we had a really nice family dinner at our house. I didn't take many pictures because of the Little One not feeling well (and because I forgot before my parents left). Sorry!

The last day before Thanksgiving break at the Little One's school was their Thanksgiving Feast. The Hubby and I really enjoyed going and the food was great! They had the tables set up with a place setting for the kids with things they made at school. There was a placemat with a cornucopia they had cut out and put together and a quote of what they're thankful for on it. They also had a little cup "centerpiece" they made with flowers in it and a glitter leaf cup of butter mints, as well as a turkey napkin ring with handprint wings. It was TOO CUTE!

Oh, and this is her first "boyfriend"...not officially because he doesn't know, but they are so stinkin cute!

We have so.many.things to be Thankful for, and I know you do too! I am most thankful for a God who chose me to be His own, and that I have a home waiting in heaven. His blessings to me are so abundant and I am so undeserving! My wonderful husband, daughter, mother, father, in-laws and extended family are so precious to me! I see other people's dysfunctional families, and think to myself how truly blessed we are that the people we're close to come with little drama :) Don't get me wrong, we've got our crazies, but they don't come around (or we don't go around them) often!

I hope we all took some time to remember and tell others how thankful we are for them today!
