Just plain ole cuteness
  About 3 years ago I decided to have Thanksgiving dinner on Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving.  I was relectant at first because the selfish side of me didn't want to give up the actual Thanksgiving day.   However, I really love it.  I  have a full day to cook and prepare the meal, not sure how I was ever able to accomplish that in just a few hours on the actual day,   Thanksgiving day my kids can sleep in and have the full day to themselves and then enjoy their other family.  It really is a win, win situation for all.  We had a great meal with family and friends this year.  My God has blessed me abundantly.  My heart is full of gratitude. I do hope that your holiday was blessed as well.

  1. And we are SO thankful that you sacrificed and made it on Wednesday. I'd support you if you ever want to switch back, but it is so nice not to have to eat two big meals in a matter of a few hours.
