I hope you all are enjoying the day. We are going to have dinner with my mom and her husband. Thanksgiving is at our house this year. It’s the first time since we moved here. When we lived in Georgia almost every holiday was at our house, but since moving we’ve travelled back home. It’s nice having the meal here again. Thanksgiving and Christmas are the only times I really love to cook…he he.

My mom and I are going shopping this weekend also. My husband doesn’t really enjoy Christmas shopping even though he will go with me. I’m sure it’s a relief knowing my mom wants us to get it over with.

There won’t be much buying this year anyway. We will buy for the kids in the family and that’s about it. Otherwise, getting together and sharing memories are our Christmas gifts to each other.

I am thankful to have my mom with me. This is my first Thanksgiving without my dad and it’s not easy. I really miss him. It makes me even more thankful for the rest of my family. Don’t take anyone you love for granted. Tell them how you feel!

Be thankful for family, love given and received, being here for one more day to enjoy loved ones, and all the other really important things in life. Be thankful for life!
