Thanksgiving

We are truly blessed.

What a wonderful week it has been. Full of love, thankfulness, family and fun.
I was so excited on Wednesday when Luke arrived home from work because I knew that we would get to spend the next 5 days together. My favorite thing to do!!!!
Thanksgiving day was Luke and my 4 year anniversary. We were extra thankful this day for our marriage and what the Lord has done in our marriage in the last 4 years. We praise the Lord for bringing us together.
On thanksgiving day we went to my aunt Judy and Uncle Wes' house in the afternoon for the "big" turkey dinner. We had a lot of fun spending time with family, playing outside and (Luke taking a nap)!

We than traveled across town to Luke's aunt Caroline and Uncle Stewart's house and visited with the "big" Grover side. And finished the evening off with more food at Luke's parents house. We ate a ton, laughed, watched our wedding video, played a board game and enjoyed each other. A very nice Thanksgiving!!!

On Friday we did absolutely nothing. Luke and I pretty much sat around until noon...ate lunch...sat around after lunch...and packed for our weekend. (Oh yeah, we did take a little drive somewhere in there:)

Saturday was my 27th birthday and Luke (the romantic he is) took me away for the weekend. We stayed at the Hilton in San Francisco right next to Union Square. Everything was decorated for Christmas and people were out shopping! We decided to join them and spent most of both days walking, shopping, eating, drinking coffee, and enjoying God's creation. It was warm and completely clear. Absolutely beautiful!

I will tell of the kindness of the Lord,
the deeds for which he is to be praised,
according to all the Lord has done for us-
yes, the many good things he has done
for the house of Israel,
according to his compassion and many kindnesses.
Isaiah 63:7
