Happy Thanksgiving!

What a happy day!
We baked pumpkin pies and started our chocolate dessert for tomorrow.
Tonight we watched Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and ate pumpkin pie!
After the movie we went through our thankful box and here's what we found:

food
my darling
for taking my girls hunting
for eyeballs, because then you can see
to have been able to help the girls with 100 shoeboxes
to be born in America
for everything God has given us
soap, because it gets the germs out
my bed
a gun
my hermit crab
the smiles and joy that all 3 children bring into our home
Daddy's job
family
my boopoo
popcorn
kiwi fruit
going hunting with daddy
for a husband that loves me and loves Jesus even more
my beautiful wife that is patient with me and is a blessing to me
for my little partner that takes care of the princess and the darlings while I'm gone
for mom letting us eat pumpkin pie early

Happy Thanksgiving!! Have a wonderful day celebrating with the ones you love!

Vacation Top 10

It's officially Thanksgiving week!
To start it off we made a list of the Top 10 things we are thankful for from our vacation.

1. Being able to spend time together making memories with our family.
Not just us, but our extended family too!! What a treat!

2. For Mike and Ang and their family for generously sharing their timeshare points!
Thanks for providing us with a beautiful place to stay!

3. Mike and Ang...again! They also did a timeshare sales pitch so we could buy Disney tickets at a discounted price AND get a free day at the waterpark!
Thank you!!


4. Breakfast on the balcony in the beautiful Florida sunshine!
The Lord gave us beautiful weather our entire time there!
5. Bonfires on the beach! And Smore's!
6. Storytime with a cousin!
7. Scavenger Hunt--2nd place finishers!
8. Movies on the big screen. Poolside. No jacket needed :)
9. Spending time with these two cuties!
10.  Family meals.
This vacation was our early Thanksgiving and Christmas celebration with my family.
Since we won't be eating with them this Thanksgiving like we usually do, this outside dinner in Florida is what I consider our Thanksgiving dinner!
No turkey, no stuffing or mashed potatoes, but we were all together!
And very, very thankful!!
Although Aiden looks grumpy.
