Happy Thanksgiving!

Well, Thanksgiving was finally here. I have so much to be thankful for. Let me list some things:

The four day break away from school.

Extra Time with Berry

Good food

My Relationship with God

The snow to go skiing

For God working in my life

For plans to work out at Christmas to go see Myra and Jason

Friends and Family

The women in the Bible Study

It was a nice, quiet, small Thanksgiving. I loved it. Every year the community does a Thanksgiving feast. I usually don't go because I feel like staying home and being by myself. I love to cook so it was nice to spend time by myself cooking the turkey, baking the pies and sweet potatoes. I went for a walk with Berry down to the beach. It's pretty funny seeing her slip and slide on the ice when she gets excited and runs really fast. The wind made it really cold..12 below.

Matt and Mandy, Sarah came over to my place for Thanksgiving dinner. We had fresh salad ( a real treat since we don't get romaine lettuce), fresh green beans, biscuits, mashed potatoes, perogies (cheese and potato stuffed inside a pasta), pumpkin pie, stuffing. We had enough food to feed 8! So thankful for leftovers too. That means I can take a break from cooking! I do plan to make some soup with the carcus though.

We played Catch Phrase, watched Berry and the puppy-Juno play. Man that little pup is wild! Constantly on the go. Was Berry really like that when she was a pup? I guess I forgot! I get to watch this little rascal when I come back from Christmas. That should be interesting and tiriing.

It was a little disappointing not spending Thanksgiving with Jason, Myra, Gram, and the kids, but I keep telling myself three more weeks!

I plan to do some skiing over this break, get Christmas presents bought, get Christmas gifts gathered and wrapped, write my Christmas letter, watch movies, take time for myself!

I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving!
