Turkey Monday

I couldn't wait to get a jump start on my blog for CHRISTmas.. if you know me, you know that I love CHRISTmas..everything about it..so since my husband won't let me decorate yet..this is good enough for me! However, I decided to do a few posts this week leading up to Thanksgiving..I am SO excited to come to Paducah, and bring Mr.Jack! On Sunday we took Jack to church for the first time! He slept the whole time..yep he's a Baptist ;) Next Sunday we look forward to taking him to Rosebower to see everyone there! Jack is to young to be in a room at church, so this is how he spent his Sunday morning..with Mrs.Angela! She is in charge of all the little children at church, and Jack just loves her! (Oh..might I add that that is how Mrs.Angela spent her WHOLE morning at church haha)To start off my Thanksgiving week, I decided to name a few things I love about Thanksgiving..

1)Family..I love being around all my family,and sharing a special day with them. I love playing cards, spoons, and just hanging out.
2)Food..I am really picky but there is some food I like..ham,macaroni and cheese,and rolls..there are also some special things I like that only certain people can make..sweet potatoes and dumplings..
3)Tradition..I love having traditions..on Thanksgiving morning I get up watch the Macy's Day Parade (to see the Rockettes) and then off to Grandmother's house for lunch, then to Mamaws at 2 for lunch..on Friday I always go back to my Grandmother's to eat leftovers and play cards..
4)The Macy's Day Thanksgiving Parade!!! I love all the dancing,singing, and floats..some day maybe I will make it there in person to see it! My favorite part is the Rockettes..my sweet husband took me to Nashville last year to see them perform..they are amazing!
5)Past and Present..Remembering our loves ones who have passed on..and now this year celebrating that Jack is here and his life
6)And the most important..being thankful that God has blessed me with all these great things..and that God sent his son, Jesus to die for me on the cross, that I may have this new life in Him..
