HAPPY THANKSGIVING


Our Thanksgiving started on Friday with my side of the family that is about 10 for dinner. It has been kind of nice the last couple of years I have been doing the Thanksgiving meal for my family and starting our traditions with them at our home.
This year after dinner Kristin, Edgar and my nephew James and his girlfriend Nancy went to see New Moon. The guys had no choice , Edgar fell asleep. Did not help they had to sit on the first row.

Today was a quite but sweet and blessed day. Our traditions are we wake up early for Macy's day parade and while we are watching it I'm in the kitchen putting the last touches on lunch. Chris' mom came down for lunch and it was just a nice time to enjoy each other. Another tradition of ours is we go to the movie Thanksgiving evening to see our first Christmas movie for the season. This year it was Disney's The Christmas Carol. It was good but not like the first one.

Well Friday starts the our next tradition Chris and I going to the early morning shopping. We will be standing in line at 2am, YES 2am, but we have gotten really good deals so we go do that go have breakfast and then come home and take a nap before putting up the Christmas tree.

Now we have one last Thanksgiving dinner for Chris' side of the family on Sunday and then we will truly be done with Thanksgiving holiday.

This year has been a year of blessings and our blog family is one of the the biggest ones. This week Alissa rededicated her life to the Lord and I'm so happy for her. The last few years have been hard for her and she has been trying to do it on her own and we all know that just will not do as a Christian we need to lend on Him. She is ready to do so. Please keep her in your prayers. Kristin has truly done a 180 degree turn to the Lord from last year and I'm so proud of her. She is on fire for Him, also keep her in your prayers to just bind the hands of Satan in her life.

Thank ya'll for the love that ya'll have shown to our family, we do love each one of ya'll.
