Much to say, little energy to do so

This Thanksgiving vacation was pretty eventful. There was much cleaning, rearranging, moving and sweat. 
Here is a photo journal of some of the events that took place:

I helped my gramma prepare for company for the Holiday by cleaning many rooms of the house. This is the bathroom. She thought I did such a nice job that she paid me for my work. :)



I also decorated a mini Christmas tree. We love Christmas. I wrapped TONS of presents!






We even bought a new couch as a surprise to the company. It looked like a completely new place when we finished.





So many people showed up that this is what my room looked like:
There was a bed, a couch, and two air mattresses. 5 people slept in there that night. Talk about a sleepover.

It was a beautiful weekend. My sister, Kori, went to the beach to take a few pictures for her UTSA graduation invitations. 


I headed to San Antonio to help move and organize my mom's garage.
It was a LONNNNNGGGG day.
As hard as we worked God gave us many things to be thankful for.
At the end of this week I don't feel like I had a week off of school that was full of relaxation or sleep or movies.
It was a week of hardships, blind faith and thankfulness despite it all. 
I am thankful for it all, good and bad and ugly and bitter. I am glad to be where we are.

At the end of the day
We are rich in love.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.
Colossians 3:16

Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done.
1 Chronicles 16:8
