Day 100 - What a Fitting Day for This To Be My 100th Day of Thankfulness

Whoo hoo! What an awesome 100 days that I have been able to experience.  I am incredibly blessed, I would think that, say it, but not until I have been intentional daily about being thankful have I truly believed how blessed I am.  Today was a great day of being with our good friends who happens to also be our neighbors.  This was our second year of sharing this holiday with them, and I must say some of our favorite years of Thanksgiving.  Today has been stress free, no rushing around, no schedule, just simply preparing food (which our friends can seriously smoke a mean turkey and whip up some awesome side dishes), eating food, and hanging out over good tasty wine (beer for the guys), and our kids playing together.  We are so blessed to have some great neighbors when we moved to Athens six years ago.  It has been nice having children in the same grade at school, and I've been blessed to have been watching their oldest daugther after school since she's been in Kindergarten and who is now is 5th grade.  I am so thankful for the Weber's; their friendship and their hospitality.
I am thankful for a morning of snuggling with my hubby and children while watching the Macy's Day parade and eating yummy pancakes that Josh made us.  I am thankful that for the past 100 days, God has truly, truly been revealing to me of what it s like to experience JOY, His unspeakable JOY.  Thank you God for loving me through these past 100 days.  I am truly thankful for all that You have given me, You are so good!
