Happy Thanksgiving....


Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends and family, and those who read my blog. My life has changed a lot this past year, but as always I have many things to be thankful for, and even more so this year!

I am Thankful for...

Jesus Christ, who died for our sins, and is the only way to heaven.

God, our father, for his love

Bobby, I don't even think I can go into how deeply I am thankful for this man. He's so wonderful, he cooks, cleans, fix things, rubs my head till I go to sleep, holds me every night, is a wonderful father to my children and his, not to mention he loves Thanksgiving and Christmas as much as I DO!

Our children, Avery,Grace,Aidan,Hailey, and Vanessa... what a beautiful healthy group of children, how lucky are we to have such smart and wonderful children to raise.

I am thankful for having a job, for living in a small town, and in a wonderful place like Galax, for friends, for health, for family, and especially let's not forget chocolate. I am thankful for living in the United States, and very thankful for our freedom.

And now its time to play Pigims and injians as Aidan says,( Did you know they came here on a big boat?).....

Here is our Menu for Thanksgiving:

Layered Salad
Cranberry Salad
Homemade Cranberry Sauce, Turkey, and dressing, and gravy
Sweet Potato casserole
My Special Mashed Potatoes
Rolls
Asparagus Casserole
green beans
deviled eggs
macaroni and cheese
Beer Bread
Cheeseball and crackers

And for Dessert.. peanut butter pie, pumpkin pies, Chocolate Pumpkin Cheesecake,Applesauce cake,and chocolate cake. mmmmmm and it smells good!!
