Weekend!

I can't believe it's already November 30th. How did an entire month go by so quickly? This has been a fantastic month. I had to post something before December dawns tomorrow morning, or actually in just a few hours! What have we been up to this month? One word summary -- CELEBRATIONS!

Isaiah turned 12 and Abigail turned 11. The entire weekend was spent having fun! This year Isaiah's birthday was the same night as American Thanksgiving. So, we had a special dinner at home. After sharing around the dinner table about our favoriate memory of Isaiah, we each also gave thanks. Isaiah then opened presents. The evening very special.

The kids had school on Friday and I had a whole day of meetings, plus we had a couples' get together that evening. Needless to say, the day flew by and I must have soared on the wings of eagles! There was no other way that I got through such a hectic day!

Saturday was a planned day of fun and activities. We ended the day with an evening at the Shihlin Night Market. If we were to list just what we ate, this post would run way too long!

Sunday was Abby's birthday. As we had church activities and a bridal shower to attend, we celebrated at the end of the day. She got to open presents (while I made root beer floats for everyone!) and we spent time sharing about our fond memories of and thanksgiving for Abigail. We all got to bed with a very full stomach and hearts filled with gratitude.

That was only four days of this month! You can now imagine what the rest of the month was like!

Seek Him First!
