MY HEART IS FULL OF GRATITUDE AND LOVE TOWARD GOD
FOR BLESSING ME WITH SO MUCH.
My life is what it is. Isn't perfect and has challenges.
Still I am learning how to praise GOD for much.
WELCOME TO MY WORLD.
WHAT A WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING WE HAD THIS YEAR. It wasn't our typical and traditional Thanksgiving. Was very good though. Casual. Pleasant. Family together and fellowship.
Easy clean-up.
Stayed at a condo.
Served turkey sandwiches, ham sandwiches and hot dogs with a variety of chips, organic salad, creamy mac 'n cheese, cookies and pumpkin pie with whipped cream to FAMILY. Twelve people together. TIME SPENT TOGETHER and not sweating in the kitchen. Paper plates, plasticware, disposable cups. Throw away just about everything. I needed all the help I could get from making the meal prepped easy to quick 'n easy.
After LUNCH, we took pictures and chatted. Off we went to SILVER DOLLAR CITY. Bundling up because it was chilly and rainy. Did our best to stay dry and warm. Our oldest son and daughter in law blessed us with admission to the City.
Never being at Silver Dollar City, it was a complete surprise. CHARMING with over 6.5 million Christmas lights decorating the village. A 8 story Christmas tree shined bright with a light show that mesmerized me. The Christmas story was shared. Train ride included.
I was in awe of the colorful lighting.
Awe.
Walking was a bit challenging, but got through it. Twas misty rain and feet got wet. Stayed as warm as I could. Spirits were high and enjoyed our time together as FAMILY.
We returned to the condo to rest.
Staying until Saturday riding Sparky the Trolley Car throughout Branson, walking the Branson Landing, eating supper at Paula Deen's, touring the TITANIC MUSEUM then driving home late into the night to avoid traffic. The wind was violent and we had snow flurries the last two hours of our trip.
Very Thankful we were HOME.
Rested all day Sunday.
This was a very pleasant THANKSGIVING.
Amen.
