time to give thanks...

...as i was looking back over the last year it was quite humorous at times. quite sad at times. and down right depressing at times. but the overall theme that came out of all those blog updates was how blessed we have been this last year.

sure we have had a flood in the house and a few trips to the ER with the kids and tim has battled a sinus infection and two staph infections and skin cancer and a relapse of his lymphoma BUT...we also got to watch our kids grow another year older and watch tons of field hockey and tons of soccer and see meg get her drivers license and be inducted into the national honor society and see the twins go to their first homecoming...

we are thankful that we are still able to get thru each day...one day at a time.

i know that thanksgiving is not normally an overly religious holiday...but for us it is all about our GOD. we give all the thanks and all the praise to the One that has gotten us this far. do we still have issues to deal with...absolutely...but who doesn't !!!

for the next couple of days we forget about what may be coming and focus on what we have and what we have been able to endure and say that LIFE IS GOOD.

family and friends and pumpkin pie...

have a great thanksgiving holiday and as always THANKS FOR CHECKING IN....

tim and tammy
