Turkey Turkey Turkey

Ah yes, another thanksgiving day has come and gone. it wasn't the best one, but it was pretty darn good. what really makes a thanksgiving good anyway? it is a day that we set aside to give thanks right? well geeze, i have a ton to be thankful for. i am blessed beyond belief because i have a marvelous family and our table today was full of delicious food. not to mention, we were in a warm house and we all have cars that we drove over to grandmas. PLUS we all have jobs and friends and so much more than that. so...let me re-phrase my first attempt to describe my thanksgiving day: it was amazing and full of more blessings than i probably noticed! i am thankful and should be so every single day when i wake up in a warm bed under a roof and can then walk to a cupboard that is full of food. i can also call my parents and siblings any time i need and they will be right there no matter what, loving and supporting me. dang. i wish i could understand how sweet that is. unfortunately i don't think any of us know how to appreciate stuff until we don't have it anymore. sad right? well, lets stop that! praise the lord for all the blessings you have! even if life seems to be sucking, we are still promised peace and love from our heavenly father. he'll give life to the full! his grace is sufficient.
happy turkeys!
