Was Your Thanksgiving Wonderful?

Was your Thanksgiving wonderful? Ours was! Zach's family came to town to celebrate Thanksgiving with us, and we had a wonderful time! Ethan was so happy to have Papa, Grandma, and Aunt Jen with us, and they certainly kept him very busy. Ayden loved being with them too. We were sad to see them go, but they have arrived safely home already. We are so grateful for God's hand of protection over their travels! I don't know about you, but I have done nothing but eat these last few days! God is so good to have provided for us so bountifully. We have so much to be thankful for! Did anyone brave the "Door Buster" sales they day after Thanksgiving? Thanks to my "pro" of a mother-in-law, I was initiated into my first experience this year! My mother-in-law thrives on this stuff and she actually talked me into going to, of all places, WALMART!!!! I may be sick but it was actually a thrill for me. I think I enjoyed it so much because I actually got what I came for, and there were only seven of this item! Needless to say, after being shoved into the entire display and gaining some bruises and scratches, I got what I came for and got a great deal!!! Thanks Teena! However, I have to say that I have never seen anything like it before in my life! It was utter mayhem! Oh, and I also got a camera and a FREE printer! Yeah!!!
Please be in prayer for us this week! My mom, the boys and I leave this Tuesday to go to Ohio to help my grandmother move from the house she has lived in for 50 years. It is a long story but the short of it is that she has been evicted. We would greatly appreciate your prayers for safety and for wisdom in helping my grandmother. She is not at all happy about leaving the home she raised 8 children in! Pray for Zach as he has to fend for himself for over a week. Just kidding! He can handle it, but we will certainly miss each other. Please let me know how all of you Thanksgiving Holidays were! Thanks for checking in with us!

Sincerely,
Cathy
P.S
I will ask Zach to post some pictures while I am away!
