This may sound redundant, but today I'm thankful for Thanksgiving.
Not just being thankful for things, but the actual holiday. It is so nice to have a day set apart to give praise and thanks to God for the many things He has done for us. (yes, I know we do that on Sundays too, but you know what I mean) I love spending time with family and friends, eating good food, playing games, and hearing what other people are thankful for.
In my family we always go around the table and share the things we are thankful for. As we sat down this year my mom informed us that we needed to think of a serious thing and a silly thing that we are thankful for. This year, my entire family was thankful that we have jobs. God has been so good to us in how He has provided for our every need. The "silly" things we were thankful for were pretty focused on Danika, but that is because we all love her so much!
After lunch/dinner we played an exciting game of Hide and Seek. Danika loves playing it with the whole family. She picks people to count and then she takes turns of who she is going to hide with. It is so cute. You can always hear her throughout the house while she is hiding. :o)
The day ended with a visit to a friend's house and a lovely game of Banana Grams.
It was a good day.
Thank You, Lord for this wonderful day!
