Happy Day After!

Right now we are in Connecticut at my nephew Paul and his lovely wife Erika's home being treated like royalty. It is the first time in about 20 years that I haven't hosted Thanksgiving, and although there are millions of good memories of great fellowship and fun on all of those, I am thoroughly enjoying being with family and not being the hostess! Right now cousin Peter (Paul's younger brother), Sarah, Anna, Luke, Hope, and Erika are making gingerbread houses downstairs in the kitchen; we went for a walk yesterday and earlier today (everyone here--my brother and his wife, Tim, and I, and the already forementioned), we've played games, eaten and eaten of course, talked, laughed, and just had a wonderful family time. And this weather change, from 70 to 30 is perfect for the season--the Christmas music playing in the background, fire in the fireplace, wow, this is almost like the Christmas card seasons, or movies or books I dream about like family gatherings ought to be. The Lord is truly good and gracious!

Another birthday!

Not that my husband ever reads my blogs, but just in case, I have to say "Happy Birthday" to him and acknowledge that he is the being I am closer to than anyone on this earth and I love him and thank God for him and am blessed above all women to have had almost 24 years married to him (how is this for a run-on sentence?) sharing, caring, crying (me, more than ever in my life this summer/fall), laughing, praying, eating, walking, loving...life. I love you, Tim, best husband to me and father to our children! Happy Birthday!
Well, I 've tried to upload a picture 5x and it keeps telling me "we're sorry we cannot complete your request, sorry for the inconvenience" so you all will just have to recall what he looks like in your minds--sorry for the inconvenience!
