It rained for most of yesterday and a good part of today. And ya'll after last night's party, I needed a good, quiet rainy day.
Which leads me into this week's thankfulness post.
I'm thankful the party went so well
We had a grand time; everyone showed up around 6 and didn't leave till after 9. There was a ton of food, and most of it got eaten. What didn't will feed us for the rest of the week. I didn't get any pictures but the obligatory group shot at the end; I was having too much fun being hostess and visiting with all my guests.

I'm thankful we have such a large house
We had 22 adults and 9 children last night, and we all fit comfortably. Having a large home is a privilege I'm always very grateful for. I love to host, and having a larger home to do so with ease has been a dream.
I'm thankful for Ms H
After everyone left last night, she jumped in to help put the house back together. It would have taken me all day to clean the house, but with her help, I only needed to put up dishes and mop the floors this morning. I really don't know what I'm going to do when she moves out in a year.
I'm thankful for the quiet and the rain
While I love hosting big get-togethers, they always wear me out. So it was nice today that both Mister and Ms H headed into work, leaving me to breathe in the quiet. Add the darkened sky, the sound of rain and wind, and it was a perfect day to recharge. After chores, I catnapped most of the day and got a few hours of my current audiobook in.
What are you thankful for this week?
