Thanksgiving 2016

Thanksgiving is one of our most favorite holidays.  We enjoy so much, being able to gather with family and friends and reflect on all that we have to be thankful for.  I began reading the book, "1000 Gifts," by Ann Voskamp, and this has really caused me to be more intentional in looking for God's gifts everyday and making it a point to thank Him.  Crazy how this act of Thanksgiving creates a sense of joy and amazement in how great our God is and how vast His love is for us.

This year, Payton's preschool put on their annual Thanksgiving feast.  We love going to this and enjoying Payton's class together.  She learned the Thanksgiving story this year, and could re-tell it so well.  We were very impressed!  In addition to this, we cooked Thanksgiving at our house this year, and had Ryan's family over for dinner.  We also celebrated Thanksgiving day at Grandma Kelly's and Papa John's.  Love love all this family time!
