Today is a busy day at our house. Here in Germany we don't have the day off so we all are working and/ doing school today BUT we are still celebrating!!!! ☺ I think is kinda funny though...my family is German and the family we are celebrating with is German/ Australian but together we will have an American Thanksgiving. I am so looking forward to tonight: the food, the dessert and the fellowship. I might show a few pictures on Saturday!
To close off today's post I thought I would list some of the things I am thankful for. On my personal Facebook I have posted something I am thankful for every day. Here they are:
Day 1- I am thankful for my relationship with Jesus Christ. Not only did he save me from an eternity in hell but continues to guide and comfort me in everyday life.
Day 2- For my awesome boy friend, Patrick. I am really enjoying spending time with him & seeing him every day without counting the days when we will be separated again.

Day 3- I am thankful for church family. It was great to work with them today on our churches workday. We got a lot done and had fun too! (Though I know my arms will be sore tomorrow ☺)
**my arms were sore & was so tired I got a fever but after a good nights sleep I was good as new!**

Day 4- I am thankful for a God who is merciful and does not give us what we deserve.
Day 5- I am thankful for good godly music. ♪♫♫♪♫♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫
Day 6- I am thankful for food.
If you have ever stood in front of a fridge full of food & didn't know what to eat...we are blessed! Not everyone is blessed to have 3+ meals a day.

Day 7- I am thankful that God is still on his throne. One day he will return again and be the perfect and righteous ruler!
Day 8- Thankful for godly council, people who have run the race before me and share the lessons they learned. Women that take Titus 2 seriously.
Day 9- I am very thankful for my laptop!

Thank you Dad for your Christmas gift 3 years ago! ☺
