The thing that brings me close to tears because it will be so wonderful, is the relaxed do-what-you-want pace we are planning. King will be playing golf with a very good friend of his, our #2, and their #1. I will no doubt be sewing something and perhaps will venture out and "save money" by shopping on the most insane retail weekend of the year. But maybe not. I have only "done" the day after Thanksgiving sales once - last year. My partner in crime who talked me into climbing on the roller coaster ride that is Black Friday will be someplace way far away.. I think near where Dorothy and Toto live.
Here is just a handful of things for which we are thankful:
- God's grace
- family whose love is unconditional
- friends (the family you would handpick if you could)
- our health
- the sheer beauty of God's design
May you be abundantly blessed by Him not only this time of year, but always.
Look at the beauty just outside our front door!
Although I am abundently thankful for the Kentucky part of our wonderful family and enjoy very much spending time with them EVERY Thanksgiving...I am insanely jealous of you and your 'relaxed do-what-you-want-pace'!
