Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

I was thinking last night (yeah....I do that every once in a while!!!) while laying in bed about how much I have to be thankful for. We are very blessed and I just wanted to share a few things that I'm thankful for this year.

1. I'm thankful for my husband, Sam. He is a wonderful husband and wonderful friend. I feel so blessed to have him in my life.
2. I'm thankful for my family. Not many people can say that they have almost their whole family living literally around the corner!! Plus we get to see them at church every week. I'm so blessed to have a wonderful family who love God and love me.
3. I'm thankful for wonderful in-laws. I know alot of people joke about in-laws but Sam has a wonderful family that love me like their own. I'm very blessed to have them in my life.
4. I'm thankful for my pastor and his wife, and our church. They love God and want to please Him in all they do and desire the same for us. They love us regardless. It's nice being able to get "fed" every time you are at church. I'm very blessed to have a good church to attend.
5. I'm thankful that Sam and I both have a job. In these times with so many people out of work, I am blessed that we both have a job.
6. And last but certainly not least I'm thankful for God's love, mercy, grace and longsuffering towards me. He is so good to me us and I thank God for all his blessings to me. I am blessed to be a child of God.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!

I wanted to post this recipe cause I had quite a few people ask me for it. I made it on Sunday and it was so easy and so delicious (and so fattening!!! lol!!)

BISCUITS & GRAVY

*1 roll breakfast sausage
*1 stick butter/margarine (yeah...that's right!! lol!! Don't tell my mom!!)
*1/2 cup flour (I added a little more just to thicken it up a little)
*4 cups of milk

***Cook sausage & butter.
Add flour....stir in well.
Then add milk, salt & pepper.

***For the biscuits I just bought those biscuits that you buy in a roll in the refrigerated section at the store. Makes 8 biscuits.

ENJOY!!!!

I want to wish my wonderful husband, Sam, a very happy birthday today!! I'm so thankful that God had given us another year together. It's amazing how trials can either make you or break you. This past year we have drawn so much closer than ever before. I love being married to you, Sam! You are my best friend and the love of my life. Hope your birthday is wonderful!!
