- Jason loves me (and my family)!
- I got my 4-mile treadmilling in before we headed out (since I wasn't able to participate in the 5k) - did you know that at the average Thanksgiving meal one will eat 5,000 calories?
- My mother can handle big crowds in her home, at some point in the day there were 16 adults and 21 kids (all but one child was age 9 or younger).
- All the girls/ladies were able to bring various parts of the meal so mom wasn't overwhelmed.
- I didn't keep my calorie log.
- Someone else took pictures because I didn't take any - UGH! (still waiting to see what others got).
- The cousins all played well together (sometimes they are too much like siblings, if you know what I mean).
- There were no ER trips for stitches.
- It didn't rain and even though it was cold, the kids got to enjoy outside (football game with the Uncles and Grandpa, walk in the woods, lots of gun fights, etc.).
- Mary brought awesome sweet potatoes!
- We didn't have to travel and, after an exhausting day, we got to collapse into our own bed.
And:
- We have a roof over our heads and food on our table - every day.
- The Lord is faithful!
