Thanksgiving!

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving.
While there are things that make me sad this year, there is a TON that I am thankful for!

Tomorrow I am going to my moms for dinner.  I am making Paula Deans Corn Casserole. If you haven't ever had it, you should... at least I think you should. It is YUMMY and SUPER easy. It is my "go to " dish when I am going to a potluck this time of year.

I also got dessert. I got pecan pie (Can't WAIT) and those little cream puffs... the kid that you just gobble up in one bite!
I was going to get traditional desserts but, the kids will be having traditional desserts at their grandparents so, I figured I would change it up a bit... and, while I *like* pumpkin pie... if I am given the choice... it is pecan ALL the way. It is safe to say I CAN'T WAIT and I am glad that I left it at my moms already as, I am sure I would have dug in!

There is a lot to list to be thankful for.
I am thankful for my salvation. For a God that loves me SO much that he sent His Son to die for me!
I am thankful for my parents who love me and raised me... My parents were young when they had me but, they did a great job. I am not perfect.. oh far from it but, they did a great job! I love them
I am thankful for my brother and my new niece! She is such a doll ... she is so cute and sweet and at the smiley stage. I just love it.
I am thankful for my church and church family. My Pastor who loves the Lord and works hard! His family who is sweet and kind and loves their church and the family there. My church family who loves us and cares for us more then I knew a church family should!
And , lastly I am thankful for my kids. I love them SO much that sometimes it hurts!
They are sweet and forgiving and I often think I am unworthy...
They make my heart smile THANK YOU LORD for these all four of these precious gifts!
