A few snaps from our family feast on Thanksgiving Day. I wish we’d taken one of the whole group, but this is how life is right now. Busy, with lots of littles playing outside and a whole lot of joy.
This was actually one of the biggest things that came up as we shared around the table this week about what we are all thankful for. We’re thankful for joy. We are thankful for a family that loves to be together and that truly enjoys one another’s company. We do not take this for granted.
“It is only with gratitude and thanksgiving that life becomes rich.” Dietrich Bonhoeffer
“O Lord, who lends me life, lend me a heart replete with thankfulness.” William Shakespeare
“It’s like your head is a horses bottom and your hair is the tail!” – Beatrice
“Did you know that the fastest moving water can cut off your finger?”
-Oliver’s first words, 6am Friday morning when we scooped him sleepy out of his bed to put him in the van for our trip.
“O Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for His steadfast love endures forever.” Psalm 136:1
that last quote is hilaaaaarious.
and those hunter boots…yum! i want.
A beautiful post! I too am thankful for my family and for JOY!
Not sure if you’ll see this but do you have any tips on the Hunter boots? Do they fit true to size? The color you own do you love and wear often or not really? I’m having such a hard time picking the color I want! I’m leaning slowly towards the classic green but I just can’t decide!!! Haha.
Looks like you had a lovely Thanksgiving :)
I really love my green pair (a Christmas gift last year from my sister). They’re classic and go with everything. (though Rebeccas are red and always look so fancy!) navy might be my next choice.
I normally wear a size 7.5 shoe and my wells are a 5/6 I think. (I was at nordsrrom recently and the kids shoes sales associate told me you cam save $10-$20 by purchasing them in the kids department and they’ll still fit). Hope that helps!
Love the Beatrice quote. :)
Lovely Thanksgiving memories captured!
