Well we were not sure if we were going to do anything for thanksgiving this year, so much was going on in our lives that we didn't know what plans to make if any.?. Wasn't too big of a deal if we didn't, it's not about who makes the turkey or any of that a TRUE Thanksgiving is giving thanks for countless blessings in each of our lives. Giving THANKS for the people who make your life better, who are there to help you. Thanks for the warm bed at night and thanks for God allowing you to share it with love of your life. Thanks for the hugs, smiles and kisses from my 2 beautiful children that make me melt all up inside. Thank you for our church family, our BROTHERS & SISTERS in CHRIST who have been just an awsome part of all of our lives. Thankful for grandmas that love to help PACK AND MOVE you 2wice in less than 6 months. Thankful for grandmas, great grandmas and great great grandmas that love to spend time with their grand kids.
Lee Roy worked Thanksgiving and we moved the weekend before (11/22). My mom is in school and took a Bible course in 1 week which happened to be Thanksgiving week.. She only has 3 credit hours to go before she graduates from DBU!! Go MOM!
So Last minute was decided that we would go ahead and just have a little something. At least to get together, eat and watch the game. We worked hard Tuesday and Wednesday to get the new place ready to have company. My mommy & Dad, Tina & Henry&Gavin, my grandmother & great grandmother(who is 84) Jonathon, Ashleigh, Lee Roy(for a little while) and the COOK... ME! ;)
Menu:
Turkey
Honey Baked Ham
Dressing
Sweet Potatoes
Green Bean cass (1 for Lee Roy and 1 for the rest of us :) )
Deviled Eggs
Creamy Mashed potatoes
Cranberry Sauce
I impressed myself... It was great. Thank you father for the gift of Family!
