Thanksgiving Night 2008

So many things to be grateful for...a fairly healthy family, Mother out of the hospital, Jay doing "okay," and Luby's Key Lime Pie!!! OH YUM!

I am disappointed that Zach didn't come home and not sure why - he says it's "too far to drive." Can you imagine how he'd feel if he were in Prescott, Arizona!? He seems fine though and of course, in the end, that is all I care about. And of course, that he's healthy! I ask for nothing more...he'll be home for Christmas!

Saturday is the Wylie Pirates (AHMO) next round of playoffs at Texas Stadium against Arlington Bowie. I am so excited - is there ANYTHING like high school football, especially when your team is in the playoffs????

I started Christmas shopping today - online of course! I did venture into Wal-Mart (its amazing to me how many stores are open on Thanksgiving Day). It wasn't horrible, but I also needed only 4 things and knew EXACTLY where they were! In and out in 20 minutes! My idea of the perfect shopping time! Hahaha!

Hope everyone that reads this had something to be thankful for today and remembered to send up blessings to the Good Lord above for those blessings. He wraps His arms around me every day and I hope you feel His arms around you!

Love and blessings to all,
Karen
