Thanksgiving

The big boys love to decorate cookies for every holiday.  The Thanksgiving cookies totally turned into a cookie contest!  

We always enjoy our Calvert cousin time too! 

Harper loves her some "Da" (Gram) :)

And we had such a fun day at my parents house for Thanksgiving that I have no pictures to show for it.  I am kicking myself.  

We are thankful.  Mostly, we are thankful for Jesus and His sacrifice for our sins.  We are thankful for our children, family, our support system, our prayer warriors, our village, our loved ones.  We are thankful for health.  We are thankful for our church  and our dear friends.  We are thankful that God is gracefully filling our physical needs even on the months that are tough. We are thankful for our careers and the students we teach.  What a joy it is to hang out with 5th graders all day.  They are precious to me.  Life is good.
