Thanksgiving Round Up

Can you believe that it is almost Thanksgiving?? Being that I LOVE to cook, it is one of my favorite holidays. I also love the fact that it is an amazing reminder of all that we have to be Thankful for. Here are just a few things that God is showing me lately that I have to be thankful are….

My loving husband, Bosco, the fact that I never have to think about where my next meal will come from, having an awesome Job that I get to see lives changed daily, friends that know me better then I know myself, and all of you awesome readers that encourage me in more ways then ever!

This Thanksgiving we are having TWO dinners with our family. Thanks to Pinterest I have found some AWESOME recipes and can not wait to get my hands dirty!

The first dinner will be on Thanksgiving day with my Dad and I will be making…
