Comfort and Joy

I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will
give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow.
Jeremiah 31:13

Thanksgiving

Backtracking so I can get caught up.

We had a nice Thanksgiving.  Our cousins were supposed to come in town and unfortunately got the flu so couldn't make it so it ended up being a quiet time with just the grandparents.  David and I hosted this year and we were in charge of the turkey.  It made me nervous and we definitely learned some better techniques afterwards because ours took a long time and seemed a little dry.  It turned out better at Christmas.

We started the holiday with our family Thanksgiving Dinner down at Le Bonheur feeding all the families.  It was a great way to remember your blessings and to be grateful for what you have.

After Thanksgiving we spent time writing our Christmas lists and then went to get our tree and decorate the house.
