So tonight we decorated the Christmas tree. Yes, I know, it’s still early but the next two weeks are going to be crazy for me and I want to make sure everythings done before Jeff gets home. Plus I still have homework to do this weekend and Brandi and I are going shopping of Friday for “welcome home” outfits!!! This year I decided to do something a little different with the tree. I decided to do a color theme – Blue, white, and silver. I have to say, it’s beautiful!. On top there’s a huge bow and the “strings” are hanging down. As soon as it’s complete, I will put up a picture.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving – a time to be thankful for the things we have been given. I have much to be thankful for. My husband, my children, my friends, my crazy dog, believe it or not, nursing school, but most of all my salvation. This year I am most thankful that God has saved me. I don’t deserve it and I am totally unworthy but still he loves me. And everyday I am amazed at His grace. I am so thankful that when life lets me down and things seem like they are falling apart, I can rest in His Word and know that He is there to wrap me in His arms. And when life is great and I’m having a fabulous day, I know He is celebrating with me. So on this turkey day, remember that even if you were the only person left on this earth, Jesus still would have died for you – that’s how much he loves you and me. Happy Thanksgiving!
