Thanksgiving 2010

I can not believe how quickly the Holidays came this year! I remember last year's like they were 3 months ago. Goodness, time just really flies!
This year was my family's turn to "get us" :) Starting last year, we take turns since it's just not possible to be in two places at once and our families to TG dinner usually eat around the same time. Last year was spent with my husband's family so off to my parent's we went.
I made 2 pumpkin pies today, one traditional with a hint of maple syrup and one a carmel pumpkin pie. Both were delicious.
My parents made the traditional turkey dinner which was yummy, my sis made the stuffing. And we had festive drinks made of champagne and cranberry juice with fresh berries. It was a fun time of just hanging out. I have a huge family (8 of us then add spouses and kids) so it's always hectic and loud. But it's great.

Not just today but everyday I am thankful for so many things. I am so thankful for such a patient, forgiving, loving and generous God! I am thankful for an amazing husband who is truly the man of my dreams! I am beyond thankful for my 2 beautiful, HEALTHY, MIRACULOUS twins. They are truly a treasure from the Lord. I am thankful for my incredible parents, my wonderful in-laws, my crazy siblings and my true friends. I'm grateful every day for my health and the health of the people I love. For food on our table and home to rest our heads! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
