I am thankful............

I am thankful for so many things. We hosted thanksgiving dinner this year and it was a nice meal. Raini and David were able to come for the weekend and we had a really good time. MyKelle was recovering from a treatment and was not able to come home. We missed her very much!! My brother and one of his sons were able to come as well as Steve's Dad and his wife. We also had the pleasure of the company of an elderly gentleman named Ed Ebert. He worked with Steve's dad for many years and then for Maverick for several years. He is 84 yrs old and so incredibly aware. We had so much fun with him. It was a very busy day but I was able to reflect on all the things I am thankful for so I decided to list some of them. So hear we go.......

Think of the big things that bring you security and stability. Think about the little things that most people don't think of. Life is such a wonderful challenge. We need to make the best of it by seeing all the good things we have been given. Focus on all of the things you are thankful for!
