We are so blessed!

We had a great Thanksgiving today, beginning with a wonderful

praise service at church, with many people giving testimony

to God's faithfulness and goodness even in trials.  Then this

afternoon I prepared the food and the table for our family's

Thanksgiving this evening.  It was a lot of fun, complete

with goofy boys and a sweet baby girl who we discovered

likes to drink coffee creamer plain...  We used our Liberty

Blue dishes this year, which the kids love because of the

American history on the plates and tea cups.  I also used

the cow creamer I got at a yard sale this summer for $1-

it was fun, although the boys thought it looked like it

was throwing up when the cream came out it's mouth...

"We are so blessed by the gifts from Your hand,

I just can't understand why You've loved us so much.

We are so blessed, we just can't find a way

Or the words that can say, Thank you Lord, for your touch.

When we're empty You fill us 'till we overflow,

When we're hungry You feed us and cause us to know;

We are so blessed, take what we have to bring;

Take it all, everything, Lord, we love You so much."
