Thanksgivng Dinner

Original post...Nov 27th

So before we made to my moms for dinner, we had a little glitch. James was loading our things into the back of my truck which was parked in the garage. He had the glass up and realized he didn't have enough room, so he decided to open the garage so he could lift the entire back up. As the garage door opened the inside handle of the door caught on the opened glass and...3 guesses what happened. It shattered everywhere! James was PISSED and I wasn't exactly happy either! A few choice words were used and I came inside deciding we weren't going. It was raining and we couldn't drive 1 1/2 hours in the rain without any back glass. However, some 2 hours later after sweeping and vacuuming up the glass and taping trash bags over the window in the back we left for my moms. No pictures of the broken glass, I think James would have shot me ;) Side note...Not looking forward to spending $300 on a new back window!

We still got there in plenty of time and with that behind us, we ended up having a really nice time. Here's some pics of our day. For some reason I didn't get any of my parents or of my big kids...crazy, busy day!

For this I am truly thankful!

Thankful

As Thanksgiving approaches I have been thinking of the many things I am thankful for.

Today I am thankful for...
This was the view driving down the mountain from Oak Glen on Monday. We serve an amazing God who blesses us abundantly with His beauty all around us.

Thanksgiving Kindergarten style

Today Hope had a Thanksgiving program in her class. All of the kids were divided into groups, so that each of them were a pilgrim boy or girl, an Indian boy or girl or a turkey; she was an Indian girl. It was funny this am when I was doing her hair for school, she wanted me to put her hair in "long black braids". he he! I had to explain that her hair was neither black not long, but I could do some braids with some bows and that was good enough for her. :)

She was excited to see us all...me the baby boys, my parents and Mauma all went to see her and then after their program, we had some "pilgrim" snacks like popcorn, pumpkin bread & apple cider. Her entire class was sooo cute and very excited to share. Kindergartners are so much fun!

Grady wanted to wear Hope's costume and thought he was "hot stuff", he's so cute! :)
