Thanksgiving

Anna

We had a wonderful celebration of Thanksgiving. We got to spend Thanksgiving with both families (Aaron’s and mine) on separate occasions! Yes! Twice the food!!! It was wonderful. This year was bittersweet for my family because Thanksgiving was moved to my mom’s house. This is a HUGE change. My grandmother has always hosted Thanksgiving dinner…for at least 31 years! She lost her husband (my Grandpa) 2.5 years ago and she is 70. Not that she can’t handle it but it is SO much work especially getting the chairs and tables set up and what not. Plus we have a large family. My mom is one of 5 kids. So we have a big turn out each year. This was actually a small gathering this year and we had 19 people! But it was great to be with everyone!

We truly have so much to be thankful for. Life, health, freedoms, the blessings go on. The Lord really is amazing even when times aren’t great…He is there and I am so thankful I can lean on Him anytime, anywhere and for any reason. May all of you who read this feel God’s love and presence and know the blessings He pours out to you! Happy (belated) Thanksgiving!

This is one of the only pictures we snapped from the day…geez!
