Thanksgiving! What I am thankful for

Thanksgiving! It was a long road to get hear but after it passed I must say it shows me that god works in mysterious ways. My husband and I debated whether we should take to hour drive and visit his family. I wanted to stay here in town. I gave in and thought that it would be okay to go so that we could stay here for Christmas. Which was the original plan anyways.

I than was excited when it turned out we could spend thanksgiving here. I am thankful that I was able to spend the with my family and it was a great day. I am thankful for the time I was able to spend with them. Its never easy to balance 3 family get togethers every holiday. We have my mom family, my dads family and my husbands. I am thankful for every family member that has helped through a difficult year.

I watched the parade why finishing up cooking this morning and rest of the day was dinner and family time. I think that's the nice thing about thanksgiving for me Its about family no mater where we ended up it would have been family. I am going to see my husbands family Sunday here. It's going to be a busy day getting ready for but family is worth all the effort that we go to for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

I am hopping that as we enter the season that it will be filled with all the joy of the holiday season. I want to try to make this year foucus on family as it should be and happy that everything worked out so far.

choices

hi! I am trying to make some choices sorounding Thanksgiving. I thought I had all sorted out until tonight again. This year has been rough and it's hard to explain all in one blog post so I will give the sort version.


When my husband and I got married we decided that we would trade every holiday. If we had Thanksgiving with his family we have Christmas with my family ect. This is a hard year and my husband and I have some difficult choices. This year my family had been through a lot and I feel I should stay with my family this year for Thanksgiving as well as Chirstmas although we need to spend time with his family. I understand that he needs to see his family as well. It's just a hard choice I wanted to host a Thanksgiving weekend for his family. I don't want to upset anybody involved. Complicated

I am just am trying to find the best suction for everyone involved my husband and I are just faced with the choice of his family or mine and I can't come up with a simple soulton. I hope I
That god will guide us to the right choice.

Autumn in Pennsylvainia

        Autumn in Pennsylvania
       I started this blog so that I could keep all my family and friends informed when I want to write longer post than other sites like twitter and allow.  I thought that I would give a overview of what  Autumn season is like for us in Pennsylvania.  Autumn and early winter have always been my favorite seasons even though I am not a fan of snow so much except I do like some of the activities like figure skating, sledding and snow tubing but that is another topic

      On Labor Day we took a trip went to the fair which is always fun in the fall.  Although over the years it gotten harder and harder for me to ride fair rides.  You still can’t beat the fun at the fair. it’s one of the few events that I look forward to going to every fall that we have lived here.  The games, rides and food are always nice. it’s a very fun Labor Day weekend tradition.
 
          Another Tradition for fall is Halloween which is coming up in two week and it always a important time our church celebrates Halloween as part of All Saints Day on November 1st.  However we always do a lot of the non religious parts of Halloween like Candy, Costumes and Pumpkins as well. I always loved Halloween and everything that comes along with it one of my favorite holidays.

    
     I hope you enjoyed my look into Fall we have other traditions as well but I thought that since this was only my first Blog I wanted to keep it short and simple.  Thanks for reading
