I don't know why but I chose to take a picture of our table right before we sat down to eat this year. Actually, Norman took the picture! We decided to stay home this year because we have been traveling so much this last month and the weather conditions weren't the best. I felt ok about it because I have seen a lot of my family lately....even though I did miss them when the time came to sit down and eat! We had quite a bit of food for 5 people!! I think I could have actually fed at least 20 more! We had a 20 pound turkey and cranberry stuffing, mashed potatoes, Second best sweet pototoes, Grandma' green jello salad, green bean casserole, homemade rolls, olive and pickle dish, vanilla pumpkin pie, and pecan pie! Whew!! We have been eating leftovers everyday since!I am so thankful this year! I am thankful for my family and my husband. I am thankful that God has provided for our family every month this year. I am thankful that I get to stay at home with my boys instead of going to work everyday. Been there, done that, don't want the t-shirt! I am thankful that God has taught me what it is like to live without comfort zones concerning Him and what He asks me to do for Him. I have really stretched spiritually this year and hope that it continues....but I also know that THAT is up to me!!
Anyways, I know it's been awhile since you have heard from me....we've been dragging the boys around the state for the last month! I will try and post some pictures soon, but I'm not promising nuthin'! LOL!
