Counting our Blessings

I'm sure it's pretty obvious what we are thankful for this year...
Our Little Turkey

It was Thanksgiving day last year, when I found out that we were expecting.  (It was very hard to keep this news a secret all day - especially when I wasn't drinking!)  At the time, Andrew was a microscopic, unimaginable future. Now, a year later, he is a very present, very real, wish come true.  So, this Thanksgiving it is easy to find many things to be grateful for, the most important of which is family.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Thankful for Gram

Great Aunt Julie and Grandpa
Great Aunt Laura and Great Uncle Chuck

We are also thankful for yummy Thanksgiving dinner - my favorite meal of the year!
Andrew learned what happens to the turkey!

We also visited Grandma Foster's House on Thanksgiving.  Grandma had her Christmas trees up in the dining room - gorgeous, as always!
