I am thankful and happy about the 33* temperature we had this morning.  The ground was all covered in frost and Megan insisted that it had snowed.  The grass "crunched" when you walked on it.  It was awesome!

                      ... which reminds me, I have to buy Megan a winter coat.

I am thankful for friends of years past.  


Chit chatting, catching up, remembering days gone by...
                                                   .... it was really nice.  


....I thoroughly enjoyed it....


I hope it doesn't take us another 20 years to do it again.

Today is the feast day of musicians.... St. Cecilia.

She is also my patron saint.

Toady I am thankful for my musical ability.

"But now bring me a musician."

And it came about, when the musician played, 

that the hand of the LORD came upon him.

~2 Kings 3:15

Today I am thankful that my WI family all seem to have had a successful Opening Weekend deer hunting.  As my sister said.... Deer = Food.  One deer = nutritious and filling meals for the first half of the winter.  There are seven days left to the season, so it is possible they will each get another deer or two, which will stock their freezers well into Spring.


                                      Thank you, Lord, for the bounty you have provided my family... these animals
                                             did not die in vain, but rather gave their lives so that my family can live.

Today I am thankful for being sick in my *own* home and my *own* bed.  

The last time I was sick like this, we were on the road traveling.  

It's much better to be sick on your own turf.

I am thankful that my baby girl still likes to snuggle.
She doesn't realize that, at 14 yrs old, it's no longer cool to snuggle with your mom.
        
                                        And for that, I am so grateful.




Jesus said, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.
                                                   ~Matthew 19:14

Today I'm thankful for Houseparty.com

I received my party pack for the wii "Just Dance 2" party I'm hosting on Nov 20th.  They included a surprise bonus game, "Just Dance Kids".  There are a number of songs for little kids, but there are also just as many songs for older kids and adults.  FUN FUN FUN.  :)
