Thanksgiving is almost here!

It's hard to believe it but Thanksgiving is just around the corner! This week we have started to scheme our menu and shopping list. Hannah and I have one favorite part of the meal and that is our Mom's stuffing and gravy, I don't know how she does it but it always tastes better when she makes it. This year I( Esther) am on pie crust duty as well as making the pumpkin roll. Hannah is going to take over the filling for the pies as she knows how to make our Pumpkin pie taste just like our grandmas. As Thanksgiving rolls around each year it gives each one of us a time to reflect on the things to be thankful for, but as our pastor on Sunday reminded us we not only need to be thankful on Thanksgiving but everyday and all day for the rest of our lives! Hannah and I are very thankful for the loving parents God has given us to raise us in such a godly home. Even through all the trial we have faced in the past year, I can truly see how many blessings he has bestowed on us!
So what are you thankful for this year?






Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
Psalm 95:2
