Thanksgiving

This thanksgiving is going to be little different than usual. This is the first time we are hosting it and I am so excited. We have Randy and Cheri coming in from Colorado just for the thanksgiving weekend. Bill will also be heading over on Wednesday night in time for church hopefully and stay the weekend. I can't wait for everyone to get here!

With the thought of thanksgiving, I have decided to list a few of the things I am sooo thankful for. I'm sure everyone out here is doing the same, Tis the season to be thankful!

I am thankful for:

-My wonderful husband and what God has given us. I remember so often back 15 years ago when he was so sick. I thought he was going to die. I tried to prepare myself and plan what I would do, but God had a different plan and I am so thankful that I have him with me each day.

-My son. God is so merciful!

-My parents and the examples they have been to me. I lean on those things so many times, even though they are far away.

-My in-laws. I am so blessed. I couldn't have dreamed of a better family. I thank God so often that he brought them into my life. They are a huge encouragement to me!

-My dear friends. God knows how each one touches me. Again I am so thankful he has brought them into my life. I can't imagine it without them!

-The Brethren. The "family" of God. It is so beautiful to be a part of it!

-My wonderful little nieces and nephews. They mean so much to me.

-My son's close friends who have become like son's to me. I truly love them.

Okay, I could go on all day, and maybe I will, but not on here. I want to try to be more thankful more of the time, not just during the "season." I hope everyone has a great time coming up with their "thankful" list!
