THANKSGIVING

In an hour we will load the dinosaur (aka Addie) and Savannah in the car and make the long trek to Michigan for Thanksgiving with Dan's family. We are very much looking forward to the long weekend off from work and time to spend with loved ones! It is always so special when my in-laws have time with Savannah and to get to spend time with them ourselves.

Thanksgiving - a time of thanks. I'm thankful every. single. day. and try to always be certain to give thanks to the Lord for all the many blessings in my life. However, this day in particular always puts an extra emphasis on giving thanks and there is SO much to be thankful for this year - its mind blowing! Here are just a few I am specifically thankful for:

- An incredible husband. WOW.
- A healthy and beautiful baby girl.
- A job. After two lay-offs last year, I am incredibly thankful for a job. And an awesome one at that.
- My brother getting a job at the same place as me!! SO fun!!!!
- No. More. Car. Payments. WHOA! HOLLA!
- Our drooling, messy, disastrous, dinosaur of a dog. We love her.
- Kindred.
- SSF (You know who you are).
- Yummy vegan recipes. You make it so much easier to be vegan. Thank you.
- The vegan diet. And how it has gotten rid of my daily headaches AND migraines.
- Finding a great church we think we can finally call home.
- My Savior who died for me and gets down in my junk right along side me. I am forever in awe of You.

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday and embrace the blessings in your life!
