It was a terrific turkey day yesterday! We had my parents over and Mom cooked the turkey at her house - made life a little easier for me to get all the sides in my oven. I prepped and pre-cooked much the day before. Ah - I am doing this from now on. So much more relaxing than doing everything on the same day. I managed to have everything done at the same time so all was piping hot - that makes me happy. What a feast! We were all stuffed and now with leftovers I won't be cooking until Monday:)
Much to be thankful for during this time of the year:
My husband who works his butt off at both his job and at our house (he's working through the weekend to make some extra $ and missing out on football and leftovers)
My kids! What can I say - we are truly blessed and lucky. E- and M- are awesome in every way.
My parents. We all are happy to have them near by and enjoy sharing our lives with them.
Family. In-Laws, Sister, Brother, Sister-In-Law, and niece and nephews. Even though we don't see much of them we are blessed with wonderful and supportive family.
Friends. Both near and (mostly) far. I am happy have made and kept such good friends throughout the years (especially with all our moves). Keeping up with you all brings me much joy!
My house! I love this house, this yard, this kitchen! Most definitely my favorite in all our years.
My marriage - 20 years in January! How lucky to have a fun, loving, supportive, helpful, good-looking, husband who makes me happy every day:)
Health. No medicine, no colds, no sleep problems, no allergies. A life of moderation and green chiles must be doing something:)
Being a "stay-at-home" mom. I am very thankful to be able to stay home, teach, love, and enjoy every moment with my children. Not always an easy task, but definitely something that I cherish and always will!
Happy Thanksgiving -
Ann
