Thanksgiving

I am very thankful for the many blessings God has graciously provided.  I have been especially thankful this season for my friends and family.  Even though I am don’t have a family here, I never feel left out because of the tremendous generosity of people around me that have taken me in as part of their family.  From the bottom of my heart – Thank You!

It has been a busy yet fun week.  The days leading up to Thanksgiving was filled with celebrations, mostly for Jarron (who turned 26).  We celebrated at our Life Group and the next day we went out for dinner, then it was Thanksgiving and then we celebrated Jarron again with his family.  Fun times!  Jarron is a good man and I am thankful for his friendship.

Jarron and his gift – Snuggie!

Sheree and Jarron – she got him the Snuggie

The gang (Sheree, Stephanie, Jarron, Bryan and me) that went out to celebrate Jarron at Ipanema Brazilian Grill – Yum!

Jarron’s parents (Ron & Keilani) took us out to dinner at Cheesecake Factory.

All in all, it was a great week and I ate a lot.  I also got to meet new people at Thanksgiving (Andersons, Allemans & Nelsons) and shared a meal with them.

Now, I am getting ready for my next adventure to Spain in a few days, so more to come on that.

Thank you Jesus!
