I am VERY behind!!!

November 17 - My Dad!!! Today is his birthday. I am so very thankful for him! He does so much for me that I can't even begin to write it all. I am thankful mostly that he is a godly man and that he raised me in a home that was centered around Christ. Over the weekend, we had the family birthday, but yesterday he and my mom came to Stillwater. Ken and I took them to Coney Island (one of my dad's favorite places to eat) for dinner and then the 4 of us went the OSU Men's Basketball game. November 16th - My family! We celebrated my dad's birthday this day. My mom had Kim (my sister-in-law) reserve the gym at their church. It was fun to have everyone together and have all the kids running around and laughing. I love when we all get together! I am thankful that my family has expanded past our original 5...I love having so many kids!!! They are truly a blessing and I love seeing them as much as I can!

November 15th - The Curran's!!! Michelle, Devin and Finley came for the weekend. Michelle was in a wedding in Stillwater and they all stayed at the house. It was so fun having them there. I love waking up to my best friend and her family! It was such a blessing having Finley there and being able to watch her for Michelle and Devin as they did wedding stuff. She is such a joy and so easy!!! She fussed a little when she got hungry, but otherwise you never heard a sound. I am thankful that Michelle and Devin trust me enough to keep her...especially since it was their first time EVER to leave her!

November 14th - Ken!!! I am so thankful that God knows me better than I know myself....and that he has given me someone who is perfect for me. He is amazing! He is so kind and gracious....caring and selfless. I am amazed everyday by his character! I have to say that Friday (the 14th) I realized this....but the entire weekend I was shown numerous times how great he is...and I am so thankful for what God is doing!!!
