A big year for us...a baby, selling a house, moving across the state, buying a new house, dear friends with new babies, dear friends with sick babies. In the the midst of all of the "events" of the year, I find myself quite focused on what I have to be, and am, thankful for. Hudson and Grace Ann - I love you both with a love that knows no end. You are beautiful parts of my life and I so enjoy every day that we have together. Thank you for all that you give me and are making me become, my life is fuller because of you two. Our family - I am still praising God for the opportunity to live near you and know you well. Thank you for embracing us and our children, we are blessed immeasurably by your love and sacrifice for us. None of it goes unnoticed or unappreciated. Knoxville Friends - I miss you deeply. As thankful as I am to be near our family, I would never trade the years that we had being your community. They were truly some of the best years of my life...trips, pregnancies, babies, laughing, crying, growing...good memories...no, great memories. Thank you for investing in me. Chris - Thank you for loving me so well. I am unworthy, but I need you. I am constantly refined as I live amidst your sacrificial love and also just simply enjoy you. Thank you for all you do to serve the people in your home...we appreciate you.
Tomorrow I am looking forward to praising and glorifying God with Thanksgiving, thanking him for his son, his grace, and his promise to return.
A few picts from this week...GA just hanging out and Hudson doing a Thanksgiving craft with Aunt Molly and helping me cook by "cleaning" the beaters...beware all who eat food from my house.

I love reading your posts Lizzy... It was so great to have ya'll here for the holiday without the pressure of getting in all you could here and then having to drive back. I loved seeing ya'll in church and I adore hearing my name called loudly from a little guy running down the isle afterward! Happy Birthday and I will see you later.... Daddy
