Too Much too Eat!!

Friday, November 28th
I went Christmas shopping at 4:00 this am with Dustin. It is amazing to see how people are in a shopping frenzy. Dustin told me that he didn't want to have to punch out some little old lady, because she was being hateful. Everyone was very nice though and there was no need for any kind of violence. People were lower key in a way. Our prayers are, that people will remember what Christmas is really about. That we will appreciate our blessings, big and small, our health, and our families. Yesterday we ate too much food. We went to two different dinners and that is always bad. Thomas and I were both miserable last night. Aaron was sick all Wednesday night and Thanksgiving Day was running a fever of 101.5. God is good though. This morning his temp. was back to 99.3. I will never be able to repay God for the blessings and mercies. Thomas will be home from hunting at noon and we are going back out into the crowd to shop more. Here's to holidays and remembering what they are really for love, family, forgiveness and a man on a cross, that loved us more than his own life. Happy Thanksgiving!! Love, Sandy
