Thanksgiving....

Thanksgiving officially is my new favorite Holiday. Maybe the Turkey was just extra good this year :), or Maybe it's just because I'm more grateful than ever before. I truly feel so grateful for all the little joys of life. Here were some of our highlights this weekend:

T and I painted our bedroom, I taped/he painted/ I cheered him on while he painted :)
Ate at T's cousin's house. They had an oriental flavored turkey and it was delicious. I'm so grateful for all the love T's family and extended family share with us.
T graciously watched the food network with me. ( i love the show Iron Chef And Charm City Cakes)
Went Black Friday Shopping and only bought two items under 20 dollars pretty amazing! (M running around the store might have had something to do with that :)
Enjoyed visting with family and friends.
Made pumpkin pies and ate them both in less than 24 hours.
T painted M's room and I took the Nursing Jurisprudence Test and Passed!
Put up our Christmas tree and danced with M and little T to Christmas music.

It was such a wonderful weekend, I think mostly it just reminded me how abundantly blessed we have been. I am so humbled by the Lord's love.
