Happy Thanksgiving!!We decided this year to have a nice relaxing day at home with our little family of four. It seems like we've had such a busy year on the go that the thought of chasing after Andrew was just too stressful. It was nice to just stay home and hang out with each other.
Megan drew us a fabulous family portrait of our Thanksgiving feast. We ate our meal all around the table talking about what we are thankful for. Andrew didn't really participate but did try to say a few things that no one could understand. He did this all while tearing apart his dinner roll and making a nice mess around his place setting and floor. When it was Megan's turn she said this: I am thankful for my family, my mom, my dad, and my brother. I'm thankful for God and all that he created. After this she looks at Jeff and I with a smile. Then says and oh yeah I'm thankful for our house too. Simple and short to say the least but from the heart. It was really cute. Jeff and I did add our thankful list to what had been said. It was just a nice time to be with each other. It felt really special and intimate.
Right now the kids are playing the Wii with Jeff and having a blast. They seem to really be into games this year. I've got a mess in the kitchen to clean but I'm so stuffed I don't want to move just yet. I guess that is the one draw back of having your own Thanksgiving is the mess to clean up. I think that is why I've decided to blog instead. It is also alot more fun to watch the kids play.
Well I just want to say that I'm Thankful for all my friends and family that love and support us. I've enjoyed many good times and cherished the help during the bad times. Without a good group of people around you it makes it tough to get through life so Thank you all for always being there. I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving.
