Looking up!


Every year at this time we look up to our Father in heaven from whom all our gifts come from. We thank Him for time to spend with one another on this Thanksgiving holiday. We thank him for our family and all those we care about. We will try to live our lives for God and His glory. We remember that the next generation is looking up to us and is watching us as try to be like Christ.

Thanksgiving Day!







We all gathered at Aunt Pam and Uncle Tim's for our Thanksgiving feast. We were missing Emily and Ben who were spending Thanksgiving in Austin, Texas. As always, the table was set like a picture in Better Homes and Gardens. Tim opened our feast with a wonderful devotional. We all felt and knew that Thanksgiving was different this year - without mom and grandma. As we felt her absence, it was very emotional - but as Tim prayed, it was time to "have a good cry and then have a good time". Our Thanksgiving feast was delicious as always. Hudson was there and he added the extra "life" to our dinner. He was having his first taste of mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, and pumpkin pie. After dinner and watching the Lions get beat by the Packers, the family settled into playing a game of Trivia, boys vs girls, and the girls won!! As our day always ends, we eat our famous hot turkey sandwiches, with chips and leftovers! God was definitely with us on this Thanksgiving Day! We praise God for his faithfulness!
