Hubby is about to make his famous pecan pie, yum, yum. Last night the poor man came home with chills, body aches etc. He's had his flu shot, but I'm thinking his working 26 straight hours this weekend may have had something to do with how he was feeling. He went straight to bed and seems much better this AM. The girls and I made pie dough last night and I'm about to make Amy's Taco Party mix to take to our friends this afternoon. Some new friends of ours invited us over, taking pity on our orphan selves! We're having fried turkey!! Tonight we may go to another friends whose husband is going to have to work to prepare the plant for cold weather (the refinery where my hubby works). I'm praying my husband actually gets the next 4 days off and doesn't get called in on an emergency!
And so today I count my blessings...
- I'm thankful for my family, whether they are gathering in Austin or Houston or somewhere on the east coast this day.
- I'm thankful that I'm healthy and that my family is in good health (for the most part) today.
- I'm thankful that hubby and I are about to celebrate 11 years of marriage and that even on the worst days, through our faith and commitment to each other we remain a constant.
- I'm blessed by amazing friends.
- That I've been blessed by three beautiful children.
- That God continues to guide me even when I veer off course.
- I'm thankful I started this blog and have met so many wonderful friends through their own blogs.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Have a blessed day! And hugs and kisses to our loved ones who are celebrating far away. We wish we were there:)
