Happy Thanksgiving


This is just a special thank you to all my Blogger friends. Thank you again for you support and your constant prayers. They helped me through the slow times, the fun times and the hard times. Keep them coming for another 12 days and then I'll be sure to slow down just a little bit when I get home.

At least in my family I know we go around the table and say what we are thankful for in our lives. My mom usually has something like candy corn or dried macaroni noodles for us to drop in a dish for everything we are thankful for.

So here is my Corn nut, Walnut, Butternut, thanksgiving in Mexico. Gracias Dios (Thank God)



1. Por mi salud.

2. Porque Dios puso sus manos en mi Vida.

3. Por el plan de Dios en mi vida porque cuando yo le sigo mi vida es perfecta.

4. Por mi familia y mis amigos muy cerca a mi corazon.

5. Para el rostro de Dios y su presencia en mi vida en el viaje.

6. Porque mi vida es la vida de Dios tengo mucho por que darle gracias.

Think of it has Spanish homework. Sorry if you all thought you were done with school but like mom always tells me, your never done learning that is why I'm 22 and still get sent to the "office".

For all of those who need translation Scott is thankful for mom and little girl(who used Dave as a translator).

1. For my Health
2. For Gods hands in my life
3. For the perfect plan God has for my life, because when I an still my life is perfect.
4. For my family and friends who are close to my heart.
5. For Gods presence in my life and this trip. (not quite sure what rostro means...)
6. Because my life is the life of God that I have much to give thanks.

So this may not be perfect, but hopefully it helps you non-spanish speakers like myself.


P.S. Scott I am so thankful for the laugher that you bring to my life. You are truely a man following God's will and I admire you for that. Keep on treking. Little Girl
