So Grateful

I have not done any official recording of what I am grateful for at all lately. It is not that is has not crossed my mind. Crossed, but never left. The list is long and would take more than 30 days to post each. With all the changes in our life my time to record things has been minimal. Today as my crazy family showed up for our family feast I was reminded of what a great family I have. I was reminded of all that I have to be grateful for.The people in my life make all the difference.I am grateful for the chance to gather us all together. No small feat we are more than 40 strong. That does not matter, who does not love to hang with family? Do not answer that..... I for one do, so we squeezed us all in.

There is no fancy table settings it is always buffet style. You sit first come first serve. Many try and hide from my camera. It has become a family sport to see who can catch uncle D on camera. I think he hates having his pic taken just a little bit more than I do.

Maybe at Christmas I will catch a better shot... The food was delish! Everybody pitches in.

OH I just love this time of year!

I also love that my niece is always willing to pose for my camera.

 I hope you had a day that was just right for you. We sure did.

I hear you and the "behind part of blogging" cause I am right there with you! :) It just seems too overwhelming right now to even go there. I am glad you have so much wonderful family around you, loving you and supporting you. And Thanksgiving is such a great holiday, where we can just eat, relax, play and be with our loved ones. I LOVE it!!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
