I'm Thankful for...

I know Thanksgiving has passed and all we can think about is Christmas-but I'm a little behind on my blog!

I'm thankful for..

God's beautiful creations..

My sweet cute husband..

It's the small unexpected things that make you smile..

I am HAPPY..

And new friends..



We went up to the Wichita Mountains in Oklahoma during my last (THANK GOD!) visit to Wichita Falls. Scott had just been home the weekend before for the wedding but I made one last trip. Scott's become really good friends with a guy named Caleb whose from East Tennesee. His wife came in for the week and we'd become friends through facebook and part of the reason I made the trip up there was so we could meet! Cassandra is a sweetheart and we had a blast! We definately hit it off right away. She's silly and laughs alot! They ended up coming to Texarkana the day after Thanksgiving. We had a good visit and hope to get to see them again someday soon.

Thanksgiving Day!

I'm thankful for...

Still being considered a kid and get to sit at the "kids" table..



These sweet (yet miserably full) brothers..



Sisterly love.. These girls are precious! LOVE THEM!



My big, loving family..



The blessing that God has given Scott's family of this precious baby girl, Ashtyn..






A sweet mother-in-law that I love and sweet little niece..



I know Scott is thankful for being at home, eating his favorite peanut butter pancakes, bacon and sipping on coffee all morning..



My girls who I've been so lucky to stay in touch with and we are always there for eachother through thick and thin.. We missed Megs this weekend! LOVE :)



We got to meet Huckabee!



Thanksgiving weekend was BUSY BUSY but we had a great time! We went to Linden first thing that morning and I helped Scott's Mamaw cook Thanksgiving lunch. She taught me how to make her famous dressing and homemade icing for a cake. She is so sweet and non-stop! I swear this woman has more energy than anyone I've ever met. I love her so much and Scott thinks the world of her. They are extremely close and she thinks the world of him, too.

We stopped by Scott's Dad and step mom's house to see his sister's before we left to head to Shreveport. We had lunch in Shreveport with my family and had a great visit. We were outside most of the afternoon. The weather was perfect! I love Thanksgiving day, it seems like the weather is always beautiful and the perfect temperature and we end up outside all day after stuffing ourselves.

After being with my family in Shreveport, we headed to Atlanta to be with Scott's mom, brother and sister (Hope) and her family. We had an awesome dinner and an even better visit. It was a fun-filled day!
