Thanksgiving morning

While my in-laws are here, they sleep in our bed and Andrew and I set up camp in Catherine's room.  And since I sleep on a cot, it literally does feel like camping.  Anyway, shortly after 7:00 this morning, we both got up because neither of us could sleep.  I'm not sure why Andrew couldn't sleep, but for me I'm battling a head cold/possible sinus infection and it just wasn't going to let me go back to sleep.  I am sure I will pay for this tonight and will end up missing the Steelers/Ravens game!

But I must admit, it certainly is nice and quiet and peaceful here.  I love that our large bay picture window in the front of our house has a side that faces the southeast...perfect for watching the sun rise this time of year. 

In spite of the stress of the last month, I am so grateful for so many things...more things than I can list.  Family, friends, and the grace of God are very high on the list though...and are an amazing blessing everyday.

I hope that everyone has a peaceful and Happy Thanksgiving!
