Thanksgiving Day

There are a lot of things to be Thankful for, besides the delicious food we are going to eat today!! :) I have been thinking about the food all week. MMMMM.

I'm thankful for the blessings that God has given us, and for the wonderful husband, family, and friends that I have.

I love the holiday season. I heard someone say once that the commercialism of Christmas has ruined it for them. But, they don't celebrate the birth of Christ. So to them it's nothing really besides a time to give presents. I can understand why it wouldn't feel important if you are not thinking about our Savior's birth during that time, and it would seem to be all about materialistic things in that case.

But I choose how much commercialism to involve myself in. I am celebrating the birth of Christ, even though he wasn't technically born in Dec! But I do like giving presents also. If it becomes something that is stressful, then that is not good. But we do what we can, and it always seems to turn out nicely. But back to today...

Happy Thanksgiving!
