Thanksgiving 2011

"Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ..." 
2 Corinthians 2:14

I am so thankful to God for all of our many blessings! Just to name a few... I am so thankful for a wonderful husband who loves me and our boys. Colt is very thoughtful, loving and hard working! I am thankful for God blessing us with his most precious gifts - Parker and Beckett.  Colt, Parker and Beckett - there are not enough words to describe my love for you all. God is SO good for allowing me to be Colt's wife and Parker and Beckett's mom! I hope I never take those roles for granted - especially when it is so easy to get caught up in our everyday crazy, busy life! We are also so thankful for our family, friends and church!

Today, was one of the best Thanksgivings ever!! It may be the start of a new tradition with our family! We had a relaxing morning and had pumpkin muffins for breakfast! Then, I began to prepare our lunch. I have to confess... we bought a rotisserie chicken from the store!  I am a little sad that I did not cook my first turkey this Thanksgiving, but it was a lot easier.  Everything I cooked turned out SO yummy - if I do say so myself ;) Colt and I both cleaned our plates! I am thinking about posting a blog with my recipes later. If there is one you want, just let me know.

Then, both boys (plus, Colt and I) took a 3 hour nap!!  When we woke up, it was already getting dark! It was very rare and we were very thankful! I was, however, a little sad I missed laying out. Tonight, we took the boys to Baytowne in Sandestin to let Parker play in the park and walk around. I even got to jump on the trampoline - it was SO fun and I did all kinds of flips! I was so dizzy and nauseous when I got off- I guess I am getting too old to do crazy things like that!

I hope you all had a blessed Thanksgiving!

Here are pictures from our day.
