Thanksgiving Blessings

We have so many things to be thankful for. First, I am thankful for my salvation. I am thankful for Michael and the fact that he is an amazing husband, father, and pastor. I am thankful that the Lord blessed us with two beautiful, healthy, loving children Alex and Braxton. I am thankful for the family we have, I just love them so much. I am thankful that we have all this love in our family. I think of so many people who have no one to love or no one to love them. It breaks my heart. The song "Count Your Blessings" says it all! "Count your blessings, name them one by one, count your blessings, see what God hath done! Count your blessings, name them one by one, Count your many blessings, see what God hath done!"

Wednesday we went to Edna and Tommy's house for thanksgiving dinner there. We had a lot of food and a lot of laughter. I just love getting together with family and kids in the background laughing and playing. It makes my heart so happy.

Today we went to Aunt Donna's barn and had lunch with my dad's side of the family. It is neat because there are so many little kids running around and getting to play with one another. When I was Alex's age there wasn't near as many kids as what are there now. After leaving Donna's we went to my mom's house. We ate till we couldn't eat anymore!

Phew, exhausted just writing that!! LOL :) But that is what the holiday's are about in my family. We are so blessed to have so many places to go and family to see!

Here are some pictures from our shoot with Hollie Henderson Photography. She did a great job!!
