Thankfulness and Family

This year, I am spending Thanksgiving with my family in Atlanta at my brother's house. As I reflected on what to be thankful for while we enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner around the table, I was struck by how blessed I am to have such a wonderful family. Not only do we love and support each other, but everyone knows and loves the Lord. What a rare gift. And it's such a blessing to watch my brother and sister and their spouses pass down that legacy of faith to their children - a faith that is shared by our grandparents and parents, as well. I am so thankful.

"Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise!
   Give thanks to him; bless his name!

 For the LORD is good;
   his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations. "

- Psalm 100: 4 - 5

This morning, we took our annual family photo to send out with Christmas cards.

And of course, a few photos with the kids.

We took this funny faces photo at the request of the kids :)

Here's me and Meg on Thursday night, making s'mores over the fireplace. (You could say we're the two red heads in the family, but hers is natural...)
