Thanksgiving- Here It Comes!

Are you ready???
I have enjoyed cooking this morning.
LOVE the spices that go in Thanksgiving food and how they smell.
Stirring up some of Jan's famous Pumpkin Cake...
 That turned into Pumpkin Cup-cakes...
Figured out a Gluten free dressing recipe.
Surprisingly, it tastes delicious.
Who'd a thought.
Please don't worry about how dirty my oven is. I don't very much. :) Ok, I do sometimes.
I will clean it up I promise.
 Can't wait to see all of these silly, wonderful kids...who are growing up way too fast.
 And these people too...
 And this view...
 Thanksgiving Prayer

Heavenly Father, on Thanksgiving Day

We bow our hearts to You and pray.

We give You thanks for all You've done

Especially for the gift of Jesus, Your Son.

For beauty in nature, Your glory we see

For joy and health, friends and family,

For daily provision, Your mercy and care

These are the blessings You graciously share.

So today we offer this response of praise

With a promise to follow You all of our days.

--Mary Fairchild
Have a blessed and happy Thanksgiving.
