I am giving thanks for Thanksgiving!!

Thanksgiving Day '06

Well Thanksgiving has been over for a week, but I will continue to give thanks for it. We dashed off to KC, baring with the traffic and made it to our warm getaway at my parents. We had a great time of being taken care of by my parents, lots of good food, football and shopping. And when I say good food more than turkey, Jack Stack BBQ as well (see pic). Football, means not only the chiefs won againist the Broncos but the Ed Schmidts won as well. I had one reception, and two completions as quarterback. Luke, hyperextended his leg but he is OK now. Shopping, well It is December 1st and I am about 60% done. It was fun to go with my mom on black friday, and all the different stores in KC. After running errands with Annie today I don't enjoy it as much when she is throwing tantrums in public.
HOPE, hope is essential for Faith. I am finishing up my Beth Moore study of Believing God. It has rocked my world. So the challenge is do you believe in miracles? Do you ask God for the things you really want and BELIEVE? Right now we are praying for a miracle; The Carr family in Denver essentially Luke's cousins and Aunt and Uncle. Anyway Amy is 2 years older than Luke and her sister-in-law was staying with them and went out shopping the Saturday before T-giving and has been missing ever since. Her name is Nonnie, she is in the Air Force, going to be discharged in 3 months so most likely not AWOL, and has a 15 mo. old that Amy was watching while she was out. They have been living a nightmare, it pretty much has been like CSI and those shows. They don't have much on leads, but they interviewed them on Fox for a national story to go out. So, God knows that we need and believe in a miracle in this situation. I hope that Amy and her husband Tony can find Hope in our God.
