my cup. it's running over.

a thanksgiving rundown...

- i have so much i am thankful for.

- ruth received this early christmas gift from my parents. i'll do a review once i bust it out and use it. but i'm pretty dang excited!

- we spent the past seven out of ten days at my parents' house. or what we now refer to as "our country home". we had such a wonderful time with them. there was lots of eating (too much, if i'm honest), chatting, hunting, napping, playing...and just spending time together. it was a deep, beautiful blessing.

- on thanksgiving evening ruth mastered sitting up on her own. yay!

- i cut my hair. about six inches are gone. i'm totally a short-haired girl. pictures to come.

- i need someone to stage a fudge intervention in my life. this is my cry for help.

- i cried when we left my parents' today. not because i was sad to leave (we'll see them next weekend). but because i am so overwhelmed with gratitude to my Lord. thank you, O Lord, for this life you have given me. it's so sweet.
