Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving! Here's a visual of today's festivities minus the HUGE family shot (all 20 people) which I'll post it once my cousin sends it to me. Hint: Put your mouse over the picture and the caption will come up.





Because it's Thursday and Thanksgiving, here's this week's Thursday Thirteen (well 10)---Things I am Thankful for:

1) That I am loved by my Savior. No matter what I do He could never love me any more or any less. I thank Him for his everlasting grace and mercy. This year has been an emotional and tough year but the Lord is forever faithful and soverign.

2) My amazing husband. I truly am blessed with a husband who is caring, loving, and has such a servant's heart. He puts up with my craziness, drama, and still loves me all the same.

3) My incredible family. I have such a supportive and loving family who not only are close by but that I get to see often (which is super important to me!)

4) My friends...you guys are great...thank you for being there.

5) Living in the seminary "bubble"-- though I joke about it often, I love that the Lord has us living in this bubble for this stage in my life. I have learned so much about being a wife, a mom, and a follower of Christ. I wouldn't change these last 3 years....well maybe not having a dishwasher I would.

6) Our church...they have a true heart for the Lord, for serving one another, and serving the world

7) That I live in a country where I am able to speak freely about what I believe, think, and feel

8) For the the little joys in life...pumpkin spice lattes, frozen yogurt, Grey's Anatomy

9) That I have a job where I can make a difference in the world and in our family. I'm thankful that I have had a stable job over the last 3 1/2 years while Jeremy has been in school.

10) That Jeremy's school is paid for so that when he graduates in May we will be school-debt free.
