Blessed beyond belief

It's Thanksgiving week... what are you thankful for? Spent this past weekend celebrating with church family Friday night with dinner and fellowship. Saturday morning met up with Whitney and Risse and went yard-saleing. Was blessed with some awesome deals as well as some new smaller clothes for super cheap. Did so much yard-saleing that we actually had to drive back to the house and drop off stuff before heading out again.

That afternoon I flew out to Oahu with only a few minute delay instead of the 30 minute delay they were saying. Got to Oahu, went to Avis to pick up my rental car and found that it was not a Versa but a Ford Mustang!!! Super fun and sporty! Drove to Starbucks for a peppermint mocha... oh I love the holiday flavors!!! Picked up dinner and then drove to Mililani Walmart with very little traffic. Shopped for Becky's diaper cake stuff and then headed to North Shore to the Pou's house. Nicci and I sat on the new deck and chatted and then sat at the kitchen table and rolled 90+ diapers. Blessed that I didn't have to do that all by myself... even Eli helped. Sat up til 11:30pm and put together the diaper cake.

Sunday started with a trip to Starbucks for a pumpkin spice latte (another favorite flavor)! Then headed to The Mission for a great message based on Philippians 1 and thankfulness. After church they had thanksgiving lunch so go to hang out with some friends from North Shore. Afterwards we left all the boys at home and Nicci and I ran errands... Home Depot... Costco... Walmart... Foodland... Great time of fellowship!

Monday was filled with a Kia board meeting and baby shower for Becky and then a meeting with Terry Locke from the governors office (Dept of Early Learning). Went to Foodland and got 2 14lb turkeys for $4.88 each versus $1.99 a pound on Molokai. Then stopped at Costco and Savers before heading to the airport. Was concerned about the amount of luggage but a guy came over and gave me his trolley... then checked in and both pieces were right at 50#.... (1 was 49.90 and the other was 50.10).

Not that I deserve any of God's blessings because truly salvation is enough but it is overwhelming to see when you have a thankful heart his blessings just overflow!
