Thankful : )

I'm thankful for a lot of things... For mosquito repellent and cough medicine, sunscreen and washing machines. For paper colored leaves taped to windows so we can pretend it's Fall and for Christmas music playing on my computer. For imported pecans and Lowell's parents who brought them to us. For Peruvian sweet potatoes (Oh, wow. So delicious!) and for friends to celebrate Thanksgiving with American style.

Yes, that's "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" that Timothy is watching. : )

I'm also thankful that one of those friends wrote a blog about our day. (So I can sort of cheat and refer you to it...) If you want to see some more pictures of our Thanksgiving Day, check our our missionary friends' blog here.

Jose was probably saying something like "You're always talking about California! But in Texas..."

And I'm also so thankful for you, faithful readers of our blog and people who pray for us. Blessings to you as we move into the Christmas season remembering the greatest Missionary of all. Moving from heaven to earth makes moving to Peru from Fresno look like a piece of cake. Or maybe pumpkin pie. ;)

You make me so thankful, Jesus.
