"Let us be thankful"

I tell ya what.....Man we have been busy. I use to really love to blog, finding the time to blog, enjoyed blogging. Now I don't have time, don't think about it, and man we are busy! My little man is growing by leaps and bounds, and we are starting to plan for his 3rd Birthday. 3RD BIRTHDAY!!! What???? How did that even happen? Some days I am just so bewildered at this life, and can only imagine what that bewilderment will be like in heaven. Imagine the amount of love that you feel for your family, for your spouse, for your child. That love is just a speck compared to the love that God holds for us. Or the happiest moment that you have in your day, can only hold an inkling of happiness compared to what heaven will feel like. It just amazes me. You may call this my Thanksgiving post, because I am not going to even pretend that I will blog before then, but I find myself so very thankful today. Not anymore than any other day, but just had the thought to express it in a blogging way. I could list out ALL the things that I am thankful for, but man that list would never end. It has been a tough year, in comparison to some, but I feel like this year we are more in tune as a couple, and in our faith as a family. That leaves us better able to handle the things that gave us so much trouble before, and go through the things that test you. So this is a quick blog. Now onto the pictures!
Hebrews 12:28 "Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire." So that verse may well be my life verse this year.
