Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 5:20)
One of our most favorite family traditions is traveling to Michigan for Thanksgiving weekend. This year, Molly begged to join the fun.
Instead, she had her own quiet retreat here at home.
A Thanksgiving list:
1. Thankful for goofballs (even at age 15)
who are also calculated risk-takers
2. Thankful for a mom who organized a great 5K Turkey Trot on Thursday morning
The runners…
Stretching…
3. Thankful for a smart husband who mapped out our course
4. Thankful for fashion-conscience girls who run in pretty footwear
5. Thankful for best-buddy cousins
The boys who wanted to stick by Derek…
Running the race…
6. Thankful for time to play games
and watch games
7. Thankful for a delicious feast
8. Thankful for acorns to collect for the squirrels
9. Thankful for the one day of nice weather, and brothers who love to play together
10. Thankful a grandfather who walks with Jesus
We arrived home and put up the Christmas tree. Always thankful for our home.
Thanksgiving truly is a very special family time! It was so great to see everyone. I am so grateful for a loving family who all love Jesus…we are abundantly blessed!!
Great memories for all! Thanks for sharing the pics and captions. I look forward to this weekend every year.
