Our Thanksgiving!!

Well we had a good Thanksgiving. I made my mom's chicken cheese ball, beef cheese ball, waldorf salad, and her sweet potato casserole. Randy cooked the turkey. We also had mashed potatoes, noodles, deviled eggs, and I made no bake cookies ( Chocolate & peanut butter), chocolate chip cookies, oatmeal cookies and pumpkin pie.



Randy watched football, then all of us watched movies. We watched Perfume (it sucked), Transformers, Santa Claus 3 :theEscape Clause (Great movie), Wind Chill ( Great movie), and several others. I got a real kick out of Faith, she did a few dishes for me it was so cute. She actually did a good job and would get upset if I wouldn't let her help with them.

That's pretty much all we did. Have a great day.

What I'm Thankful For

Well, I figured that since Thanksgiving is coming I would do a post of my Top 10 Things I am Thankful for. My list isn't in any specific order. Here goes:


1. I am Thankful for my husband Randy. I would feel complete without him. I truly believe we are soul mates. We have known each other literally half of our lives and I love him the same if not more than I did when we got married almost 14 years ago.

2. I am Thankful and Blessed for my children Gage and Faith. I always wanted to be a mother with one boy and one girl and I got my wish. They are the greatest. I got my wish , the million dollar family.

3. I am Thankful for my dad Chuck. He taught me what he could when he could and he always accepted me for who I am. He was always there when I needed him. I miss him so much at this time of year.).

4. I am Thankful for my mom Brenda. We had so many disagreements and barely got along at times but I learned from watching her mistakes to try to go a different direction. Despite her faults her love for everyone was genuine. I miss her too at this time of year. ( I will be posting about her soon because her birthday is coming

5. I am Thankful to be alive, even if I wonder why I am meant to be here at times. (that's my depression talking). I know we are all here for a purpose just trying to figure out mine.

6. I am Thankful for for all the hardships I have been through, as weird as that sounds. If not for all the hardships I never would have figured out the inner strength I have.

7. I am Thankful that I found my parents when they passed away. It was difficult at the time, but I learned a lot about myself in doing so. I also believe that I was always meant to be the one to find them.

8.I am Thankful to have a job. A lot of people can't work because of health or other related issues and my heart goes out to them. I'm just glad I can and I will for as long as I can.

9. I am Thankful for my friends, without any of them my life would boring , dull and difficult. I love all of them for their uniqueness and Patience. I am also Thankful for all my new blogging friends, all of you are terrific.

10. I am Thankful for the Lord above. I question my faith a lot but deep down I know I would be where I am today without him.

I hope you all enjoyed reading this and I would like to wish everyone an early Happy Thanksgiving and Blessed Be.
