Thanksgiving and Birthday

Thanksgiving was so great this year! We got to spend time with family and enjoy a great meal. I feel so blessed this year. Even though this has been one of the worst years of our lives. The other day in the car Chantry and I were thinking of ways that our trials have still been blessings. We were trying to see the good in all of the rough situations. I am so blessed to have a wonderful husband to help me see the good in our trials. It was a great Thanksgiving!
The monday after Thanksgiving was my birthday so I got a whole birthday weekend..or was supposed to. Friday night we celebrated at my parents because my sister and her family was in town. It was so nice. The next night we went to Chantry's parents. It was a nice relaxing night. I got plenty of baby snuggles from our niece Ellie, which I loved. On sunday I was supposed to go to my Grandmas and then on Monday Chantry had the day off so we could catch a movie and go shopping.
Sunday morning I had to get up early because Chantry had a meeting right before church and we only have one car. I got up and felt a little sick but that is not unsual if I don't sleep well. I started to feel better and went to church. During sacrament I started to not feel well and then in sunday school I had to leave because I really didn't feel well. Chantry took me home and I started to throw up. I was so sick ALL day! I was hoping that it would be better for my birthday the next day. The next morning I woke up and could keep some food down but still didn't feel good. I was really bummed that I was sick on my birthday. At least Chantry was home to take care of me, which was a HUGE blessing. It took me 5 days but I finally felt well enough to get off the couch and be normal. It was one nasty stomach bug.
Since I didn't get to do anything on my birthday Chantry took me out on Saturday. I had the best day. He took me shopping where I found fabulous boots and lots of clothes. He then took me to dinner and we saw Tangled. It was such a great day. Even though it was not the birthday I had originally planned it was a such a good day. Thanks babe for making it special!
