Every year we go to the big family gathering at Brians cousins house. It's always fun and TONS of food. My dad will be here to visit that week as well. he came for one thanksgiving and once he got a taste of all that food and now I think we'll be stuck with him every thanksgiving
LOL
We'll have the usual... Turkey, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, stuffing, etc. I won a free turkey from my bowling league so I'm going to ask if we can provide the second turkey for the meal (they always make two lol) and then dessert later on. We usually take a walk between the dinner and dessert if it's nice out. Dessert will be the usual pumpkin pie, apple crisp and my personal favorite... ice cream dessert. it's the best dessert on the planet. it's vanilla ice cream and vanilla pudding mixed up together and put on top of a ritz cracker crust with whipped cream on top. That salty with the sweet vanilla... Oh man lol. When they know I'm coming they always make sure to have the Ice cream dessert... I have a reputation lol.
What am I thankful for? pretty much everything lol. God has blessed us SO far beyond what we deserve. I have the most wonderful, considerate, loving husband, an amazing 6 year old with a big beautiful heart that never ceases to amaze me and make me laugh, a home that is nothing fancy and it is small but it's also warm, doesn't leak, and provides us everything we need and more, good food in our bellies, clothes on our back, my husbands job which pays well and allows me to stay home and homeschool. We have everything we need and then on top of that we have the extras, the fun things. We aren't rich in the money department but we are rich in love and life. For all of that and more... I am thankful.
