Prayers

I would like to ask for prayers for safety this weekend. I am driving to TN for a class reunion, which wouldn't be such a big deal, but I fell this week & broke my tail bone in 2 places. So, driving has been a little bit of a challenge for me. I've found a way to prop on a pillow to relieve some pressure & I think that I'll be ok.

I'm sure you'll hear all about the reunion when I return, plus I'll tell you about the Casting Crowns Christmas concert that Bret & I went to this week & post a couple pics. It was awesome!! Thanks for your prayers & I hope you have a wonderful weekend doing some shopping or crafting (Kim & Jill) or whatever you choose to do.
Peace!!

Thanksgiving & Family Time













Wow, I am so thankful for so many things & people in my life! Just when you think you have all the love in world from all the people that matter, God drops more love in your lap! The last 2 weeks, I have gotten to spend time with with some of the most precious people in this world. My nieces & my nephews, who next to my children, are the most precious gift that I have been blessed with. I haven't gotten to spend a lot of time w/2 of my nieces, Haylee & Ashlynn. But in the last 2 weeks, I have been back home to TN, & by the grace of God, I had the oppurtunity to get to know these sweet angels. I also got to meet my nephew, who is 5 yrs old. His name is Alex & I fell in love with him also the 1st time I laid eyes on him. And then there's Dakota & Brilee. I have always been in their lives & I can't begin to explain the love & joy they have brought me. We treasure each & every second that we have with all of them. Not only that, I spent Thanksgiving at home with my family. We haven't done that in quite a few years. My Pepaw is 94 years old, and not getting along very well. I am very thankful to have spent some precious time with him these last couple weeks, since I don't know how much more time he has left on this earth. There honestly is nothing else I could ever ask for. Just spending time with the people I love is ALLLLL I ever need. What are you thankful for? Look around you & count all the many blessings in your life. I bet like me, you'll find way more than you thought you would. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! PEACE!
