So Much To Be Thankful For....

What a wonderful holiday weekend. Thanksgiving is a holiday that I've come to appreciate so much more as I've grown older. An entire day devoted to eating good food and being with those you love. I love waking up to the delicous smells of turkey, stuffing, potatos, pies, rolls, etc. I love that there is no pressure to buy gifts. I love that the day is so relaxing. I guess I just love it all. This year we spent the first part of the day with my family.

Adam, Levi, Jordan, Annie, Nathan and David

Aunt Beth and Ben. Beth made the layered jello salad. Mmmmm...

After dinner at my house, we headed over to the Walkers to hang out for a bit. We got there just in time for dessert--Grandma Parker's world famous pumpkin pie.

Grandma and Grandpa Parker served a mission to India several years ago. They had some of their friends from India come to Thanksgiving dinner. They were such nice, wonderful people!

This has been a big year for us. We have so much to be thankful for. When you actually stop to think about it, it's truly amazing how generous the Lord is. Despite all my many blessings, I have to say I am most grateful for......
