Thanksgiving

For thanksgiving this year, we packed it up and headed south, well south-west to Hagerstown, Md. to spend time with Darryl's family. It was a wonderful weekend! So incredibly relaxing and fun! When we got there Wednesday night we were delighted to find out that his mom and dad were able to get cable on short notice and we were going to get to watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade. May seem like a small thing, but I was so happy. We don't have cable right now, or any stations for that matter and I was so excited to be able to watch Tv. I know it prob. sounds vain, but really I felt blessed! Thursday morning we slept in while the kids made pancakes with ma-maw & then got up to eat choc. chip pancakes and watch the parade. At lunch time Josh, Kim and Joanna, came over for a FEAST! It was wonderful food and fellowship! We love spending time with them, getting to know our dear niece Joanna! She is beautiful inside and out! Ever since then whenever Jorden prays she prays for her sisters & cousins. Prophetic I'm sure of future siblings & cousins! But its really cute! No Black Friday shopping for us this year just more relaxing. On Friday we meet up with our friends Derrick & Lacey. It was a great to spend some time with them, and Lacey thank you so much for letting my borrow your Maternity Coat! I LOVE IT! and I'm no longer cold! :) Friday night, we had a great time hanging out with the family, and some extended family. Aunt Joy, Lindsay, & Morgan stopped by, after a long day of black Friday shopping for them, we felt blessed that they still took the time to come and visit! We love seeing them and spending time with them! Saturday morning we packed up and headed home, full, not just with leftovers, but with a sense of love and appreciation for family and the blessing they are!
