Thank you God

We have a lot to be thankful for and we thank God for all these little blessings. We were able to go to Fargo to meet our newest perfect little nephew Jackson.
Annie, Matt and Owen hosted my side's Thanksgiving and they didn't disappoint. Annie just gave birth to Jackson 6 days prior to having all of us at her house. Now that's a woman! Mom helped her prepare the delicious spread of food and they did a great job. The kids were able to play with all their cousins, the guys watched a little football and Laura, mom and I got our baby fix by holding that precious little boy. Jackson was born on November 19th at 4:07 a.m. and weighed 6lbs 14oz. He is soooo cute! We met Bob and Laura at the hotel on Wednesday night and the kids all swam together. They had a great time. It was a quick trip to Fargo but we are thankful that we had beautiful weather & good roads.

On Saturday we traveled to Wabasso for the Salfer Thanksgiving and we are so thankful to have alot of fun cousins to play with, I'm thankful for awesome in-laws and thankful for the delicious food especially Charlene's Pecan Pie. It was nice to be able to visit and catch up with the older nieces and nephews while the younger ones played. We hardly ever see our girls once we arrive at Gpa and Gmas! We played a fun new card game too!

We also stopped by Great Grandmas to say hi, see her new place and wish her a happy Thanksgiving. She looked great and was happy to have the company. I'm always amazed at how upbeat she is and happy despite not being able to remember everything or able to say what she wants. I'm sure she feels frustrated inside but she never shows it on the outside. She is one amazing lady. Again-blessed to have her as my grandma. :)

Brian and I always comment on our ride home from these family events how blessed we truely are. And we know that God gave us these blessings and are thankful to him for them.
