Apple sauce making with a word of thankfulness....

A week and a half ago we had our annual "family get together and make applesauce day"

I don't know what our total was for the day.. i came home with 59 quarts of applesauce and was quite happy to be stocked up for another year.... 

After our day of work we celebrated 2 birthdays..

Nephew Trevor who is full of expression as you can see:)

 And daughter Brooklyn who i have referred to several times before on this blog..

The cousins have a ton of fun playing while the parents work.. but there are plenty of adults around so the work doesn't feel like hard work, if you know what i mean...

Jasmine and Brooklyn.. 7 months apart...

The title of this blog says "apple sauce making with a word of thankfulness"...

So next I'm going to say my words of thankfulness.

Less then a week after the applesauce making took place.. Curtis' dad.. (PaPa) had a heart attack... And though he was alone... it just so happened he was right across the road from the Dr. when the symptoms started.. He was able to make it into the Dr's office.They sent  him (by ambulance) to the hospital where they put 2 stents in right away. He had a major artery clogged.. the Dr. said the Lord was definitely watching out for him.. After 2 days in the hospital he is home and doing well!

So this is my word of thankfulness for this week. 

Thank-you Lord for watching over each one of us every day... I take it for granted.. Thanks for allowing all of this to take place when FIL was close to people that could care for him right away.

I would love for all you to hear my 4 year olds version of this story.. 

"Do you know what happened to my PaPa? He braked his heart. And he went to the Dr. and the Dr took him to the hospital. And he took off his clothes and put hospital clothes on him. And the hospital said no children allowed back in that room."
