Thanksgiving

I have been thinking about how I want my table to look for Thanksgiving. I can remember several years ago, Mark's Aunt Jozada hosted Thanksgiving. I will never forget how lovely her table looked. She has beautiful antique turkey plates. She told me they are very hard to find. Her goal is to have a twelve piece place setting for each of her boys. That is so nice of her; she is a sweet person.

I am thankful for the internet. I can always get ideas from several different sources.

This past weekend was a great one!! We stayed home Friday night, and did the normal Saturday things. (Walmart, etc.) Sunday after church, I went wa---y out of my comfort zone. I am a firm Sunday afternoon nap taker, and Titan watcher, but this Sunday after church I went four-wheeler riding with mark and the kids. I had a great time and learned it is nice to get out of my comfort zone!:) I had never been riding where they rode, and it was beautiful. Mark and I talked about it and he brought up a good point. We would never get to see this unless we had a four-wheeler. I agreed, but I honestly think he is trying to get me in the right frame of mind to drop the bomb. He wants a side-by-side something. Mark takes the bumper sticker on the back of our boat to heart. (which I did not even know was on there until recently) It reads, "Whoever dies with the most toys wins" ( or something like that) I know it is coming, I just do not know if it is a side-by-side or a jeep! He kept on saying, "Now Momma (he calls me that when he wants to persuade me) you would not get scared at all if we had a side-by-side.:):):) Anyway we went to some caves, the lake and alot of pretty places. I think spur-of-the-moment trips are the best. And I read being spontaneous keeps you young, so by all means, I will be!!!
I think it is neat the kids still "let" us be around. We like to think they always will...but probably not. You know me, I like having everyone in the nest!!! I am thankful that I realize to enjoy everyday and live it, because there may not be a tomorrow. When I was younger, I was just worried about "getting things done" and moving to the next function; That is sad, because I feel like I have not done several things that I should have, but I will make up for lost time and live for today. and maybe, just maybe I will be skinny and look younger too:):):):): Dream--------weaver------:):):):):)
