Thankful!

This weekend we celebrated Thanksgiving at our house...Scott and Sarah came from Cinci and stayed with us. They arrived here on Fri evening/night and we just kinda stayed up and talked and then went to bed. On Sat. my mom got up and started our Thanksgiving dinner...the rest of us just kinda slept in and lounged for awhile, then we started getting ready and my mom went and picked up my step sister and so she was able to spend most of the day with us...anyhow, while we set the table and they were getting dinner ready Scott and Nate played the Ps2. So it was nice to just be able to spend some time with my family, except we really missed Hannah, Eric and Joseph! I really wished they could've been here...we have such a blast when we are all together, but I know they are happy and are doing God's will!! But anyways, then after dinner Will asked Viletta (my step sister) to play the piano, so....well, okay, if you know me and Sarah you know that we love to sing (poeple may not love to hear us sing, but it doesn't keep us from trying) so we joined in and TRIED to sing while Viletta played the piano...it was so much fun! Well, anyhow, I had to leave b/c I had Christmas practice at my Church. After practice we came home and they had put up the Christmas tree and we decorated it and Sarah and mom decorated the living room and dining room...it looks so cute! So all in all...it was really fun...dinner was delish, Christmas music, singing, talking, just spending time together was great!! I am so thankful for my family, I am so blessed to have them!!! They are the best and I couldn't ask for a better family! I love you guys!!! So....don't fret if the turkey isn't perfect, don't be sad if the mashed potatoes are lumpy, don't worry if dinner is not served on time....b/c at the end of the day, it's not about how everything turned out, but about who you got to spend your day with...people you love and who love you in return!! So...ENJOY!! Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!!!
