Our Thanksgiving


I usually enjoy cooking Thanksgiving at our home but this year, with having such a tiny kitchen and our apartment being a bit squished, I wasn't really feeling it. Thankfully, we had an invitation from a dear friend to join them for Thanksgiving. We headed up to the mountains and joined our long time friends for the day. We certainly had a spread! Yummy turkey, mashed potatoes, sausage stuffing, sweet potato casserole, broccoli casserole, yeast rolls, cranberry, etc. Sweet Isaac made pumpkin pie and we had apple pie as well. It was all so good!
But even better was the company. We got to visit with Steve and Wendy, Isaac's grandmother, and Isaac and Devon. I hadn't seen Devon is so long and here he was a grown man!! It was very surreal.
I got to sit outside(in the freezing cold) bundled up and have a wonderful talk with Wendy. We always have these wonderful discussions on faith and she always surprises me with her wisdom. We got to know Steve a bit better and he's such a great guy. I'm so happy for my friend Wendy for finding a wonderful man to spend the rest of her life with. We all got to share stories and laughs and it was an enjoyable day.
The boys had a blast as usual playing with Isaac and we were all sad to leave.

The cold front blew in while we were there and it was freezing when we left. We said good-bye to our sweet friends and hope to get together again soon.
It was a blessed Thanksgiving and we all have so much to be thankful for!
