And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, 

do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, 

giving thanks to God the Father through him.

 -Colossians 3:17

today's verse on here. had to reshare! ;)

Hope everyone had a WONDERFULLY AMAZING Thanksgiving!!! And that it continues, as is mine, on into the wknd!!!! I am so blessed!! God is so good!! Today was perfection. I went hunting this am with Dad and Daniel and I SHOT MY FIRST DEER!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my goodness, words couldn't express how excited, happy, over joyed I was! And how proud my Dad and Daniel were! haha (Love them!) It was a little um..smaller than I would've liked haha but I actually took a shot at one, AND hit it!! [still on a high, if ya couldn't tell haha] Then I came home and had a wonderful little thanksgiving dinner with my mom, my dad and Lucky (the BEST little sister in the whole wide world!) then my two older sisters (also the best older sisters in the world haha) came over with their families as well as my two aunts and theirs. Got to see my Melly for the first time in AGES!! [Love that girl!!] We weren't expecting everyone, but oh WOW what a wonderfully awesome evening!!! I have THE best family in the whole entire universe! So so glad everyone showed up!!! Sad that I missed my Bubs and lil Michael...but hopefully I'll see them soon! I am so grateful for all the ppl in my life! Don't know where I'd be without them! After everyone left me, Lucky, my aunt and my lil cousins headed to walmart to fight the crazies for some good deals haha And boy did we ever. We walked away with everything that we went after (with help from J.B of course:) plus a ripped shirt and a bloody arm....bahahaha! I LOVE black Friday! Off to bed to get some MUCH needed sleep now! And then lunch tomorrow w/my two Ambers!! Then pictures of baby Gracyn!!!! SO excited!!! Oh and yes, I did get my copy of Longing..thanks to my awesome parents! :) And I finished it already....amazing book. Wonderful msgs of truth, hope and love. But I must say..I was extremely sad when it was over...and VERY verrrry disappointed in the ending. That was a very first for a Karen book. (Hoping Karen turns things around in the last installment coming out in march! haha) but yet again Karen's book resembled my own life so so much. Its almost scary that she does that, every time. One lesson she wanted to portray in the book she said was that "things don't always have the ending we'd hoped for or expected"...that was DEFINITELY true for this book. And ya know what...true for my life! BUT when God's writing our story..the ending is ALWAYS better than we'd ever be able to dream. That. Makes me so sooooo excited!!! :) 


Best. Thanksgiving. Week. Ever!! ;) 
So so so loved and just FULL of soo many blessings all around me!! 
God. Is. SO. Good!!!!!!! 

LOVE my Daddy!!!!!!!!!!!!
