30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 25
Last night we had my parents, Chris and Kadi, Lisa and Justin over for our own Thanksgiving meal. I cooked a turkey breast, ham, dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberry sauce, mac and cheese, peas, corn, and two coconut cream pies. My mom brought a really nice salad with all sorts of toppings and a…
30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 24 (belated)
Yesterday as I made coconut cream pies from Grandma’s old recipe, I thought about her and the legacy she left behind. Nothing was more important to her than family. I can’t begin to count the number of times I heard her say, “I have the best family.”. She wasn’t bragging; she honestly believed that. Over…

We have a neighbor down the road who is diabetic and requires assistance fairly often. David had put in a very long day and was finally getting a chance to relax but he didn’t hesitate. He…
30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 20
I had a few errands to run today including a stop at the grocery store for the last items needed for Thanksgiving. I had seen people on Facebook complaining about how busy it was at Walmart. I never shop there but I wasn’t sure what it would be like at the grocery store where I…
30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 19
David and I watched Part I of “The Dust Bowl” tonight and while I thought I knew a lot about that time period, I was still struck by just how disheartening it must have been. I remember my grandmother telling me about how the dust seeped into the houses despite all their efforts to keep…
