Giving Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

This year has had its ups and downs for Bobby and me. The year started with the promise of a new job for Bobby and the prospect of getting pregnant. Unfortunately the job didn't work out the way we wanted and we approach the holiday season with one less income. I could sit here and go on and on about how hard it's been, because it definitely has not been easy. However, I'd rather spend today thinking about what we DO have and how lucky we are.

We are having both of our families over this afternoon for Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone has been so generous in offering to bring different parts of the meal and it has really been a big help. I'm thankful that we CAN have both sides of the family over and that they get along so well. We're lucky that our parents and siblings like each other and are excited to celebrate the holidays together.

I'm most thankful for my husband. He is my best friend and I couldn't imagine my life without him. No matter what we've been through or what we're going through now, I wouldn't want anyone else by my side. OH, and of course I'm super thankful for Nemo! He brings us joy everyday and loves us unconditionally. There's nothing better!

We wish you all a happy and fun Thanksgiving!
