"The thankful heart opens our eyes to the multitude of blessings that continually surround us."
-James E. Faust
I made a print of this quote as part of my Thanksgiving decor, it was my motto for the month.
Truth be told, I was dreading Thanksgiving this year. I was starting to get anxious the closer we got to Clayton's birthday because I knew once that was over "the holidays" would start and December would be here. December is going to be a hard month to face, however, my heart is thankful, and I am able to see the many blessings I have been given. I could count more than a million blessings that surround me, but I will list a few:
The personal relationship I have with my Savior, Jesus Christ, and the love that He has for me.
The knowledge I have that families are eternal, and the family that I get to spend forever with.
My marriage that is strong, and my husband who I love more than words can say.
The boys that I get to call my children, they mean more than the world to me.
Thanksgiving was here before we knew it! Sean's family came for a few days to spend the holiday with us. Is anyone surprised that we failed in the picture department?? I'm sure that you have come to expect that by now when it comes to family get-togethers…
So instead I will just tell you that we had fun, dinner was pretty good, and the house didn't burn down. I would call that a success.
We are glad that the Boggs made the annoyingly long and boring drive to spend Thanksgiving with us!
Here are the few pictures we did take:
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!
