CAN'T BEGIN TO COUNT THE THINGS I HAVE TO BE THANKFUL FOR


What a weekend! I can't believe that it is almost over, only a few more hours. I have decided to for all intents and purposes measure the weekend via true Hunter style, and measure it in meals.

The first meal was a wedding feast! And what a feast it was, but the food is not the focus here. Yes, the first of the Hunter cousins got hitched over the weekend in a beautiful ceremony at White Point Beach Resort. It was perfect in every. I am so happy for Chantal! And Adam is a wonderful addition to the family. (interesting side note, we knew Adam was a keeper when within 10 minutes of meeting my part of the larger Hunter family, he was already in a pillow fight with my youngest brother, Charlie. Anyone who feels that comfortable with my family really should be an official part of it!) The wedding took place outside, beside the beach, just before the sun went down. It was beautiful. And for those of you who are wondering about the dance...It was not half as bad as I was anticipating. I did dance with each of my brothers once, but there were lots of friends at the wedding, not just family as I was lead to believe, so it didn't get overly awkward! My youngest brother, and the youngest guest at the wedding graced us all with his dance ability by doing the worm for everyone...I have imparted some great dance knowledge and ability to him!

The second feast was Sunday brunch, now there is no real event to mention along with this meal, but the meal itself was so good it was worth blogging about! It was an all you can eat buffet brunch, and since the weekend is being measured in meals, enough said!

Third meal, TURKEY DINNER!!!!! Oh yeah, it was awesome. Also in true Hunter style we had a massive spread and a massive group of people to enjoy it with, 16 all together. A full stomach and a good time was had by all!

So what am I thankful for? Well the food for sure, but that isn't where the list begins or ends. I'm not sure if I could even begin to list everything that should be on that list. And I am not even going to try because I know something important will be left off. So to actually pull the title into my post, I really can't count what I am thankful for. But the grace of God needs to be mentioned. How thankful I am that God sent His son to die for my sins and to stay with me forever. I think of the phrase so commonly used eternally grateful, it takes on a whole new significance.

Thank-you Jesus.
(And a special thanks to Greg for the lift back to the city, you made the trip much more enjoyable!!!)
