A Day of Thanks

Thanksgiving is my second favorite holiday. It  is a day to thank God for all that he has blessed us with. And it is also a day to spend with family and friends. This year our good friends the Bennett's had us over for dinner. We have known Jesse and Danita sense we lived back in Monterey, CA. We are so blessed to have them in our lives. 

While Danita finished up in the kitchen (I tried to help but she had it all under control) we relaxed in the family room watching some television.




While Danita was in the kitchen and Jesse was caring the turkey, Evy was ready and waiting for dinner!



To say dinner was amazing would be and understatement! Danita is quite the cook. The bird was so juicy and tender! And all the fixings were just as yummy! I made the candied yams and the cranberry sauce but Danita made everything else!






Once our plates were a little too full, we sat down and enjoyed a marvelous dinner.



There are so many things that I am thankful for, my husband, our life in Hawaii, my family, my friends, and everything else the Lord has granted me. And I just want to say thank you to all my family and friends for always being there for me and supporting me. But I would like to thank my amazing husband for all that he has given me and all that he does for me. I would not be there person I am today if it wasn't for him. I love you Alex. And thank you for being my best friend, partner in crime, and husband.
