Happy Thanksgiving



Our families have so many things to be thankful for this past year. With graduations, new jobs, weddings, pregnancies, births, milestone birthdays, and so much more, it is hard to not be thankful.

I was most blessed by the opportunity I had to spend another Thanksgiving with my PopPop. I had the most wonderful visit with him this past week. I was able to spend a lot of one-on-one time with him. We talked about everything! On Thanksgiving he ate a large meal and then was even hungry for dessert. This is a big deal considering he hasn't wanted to eat for a long time. After eating a large meal we were sitting in the living room and he told me that he was tired. When he noticed I was too, we took a short nap together. He reminded me of the importance of time spent with family. It didn't matter what we were doing or talking about, it was just a joy to have that time.

Paul and I are so thankful for our families and the love we are surrounded by. We are especially excited about our new addition and the begining of our own family.
