I love Thanksgiving. In fact, it is my favorite holiday of the year because it is a time to reflect on all our blessings, spend time with family, and enjoy the beautiful fall colors. It does seem that Thanksgiving is a bit minimized and overlooked by all of the commercialization of Christmas. Before Thanksgiving is even here, Christmas decorations are out, lights are up, and the stores are talking about Santa. I like to think about all of the people and relationships in my life that mean the most to me.
I am thankful for family and friends who make this life wonderful. But I am mostly thankful for Jesus Christ who provides everlasting life and all of our needs according to HIS riches in Glory! Although He has provided my family with a beautiful home and more material blessings than we could ever ask for, these things do not define who we are. It is the people in our life: our grandparents, our parents, our siblings, my husband, our children, and our friends, that mean the most to us. God has been good and for that I am forever grateful! I think "Thanksgiving" should be a frame of mind that we keep all year long.

About Me
- Toni Nash
- Lewisville, Texas
- I grew up on a farm in LaCamp, which is a small little country town in central Louisiana. The aspects of the country I miss the most is being able to see the stars without the "taint" of the city lights, wide open spaces, and old familiar faces. But most of all, I miss family. Jason and I have two amazing little boys who are so happy and full of life! We have made some wonderful friends while living in Texas and are happy to call this our home. Although our country roots will always keep us "grounded", we enjoy living in Lewisville where there are so many opportunities for our family of four.
