What we are Thankful For

I am thankful for many reasons, and while we have had a lot of difficult things going on around us, we have always managed to be happy, love one another, and get through anything that comes our way, together. For that, I am very thankful that I get to love and live with, my best friend, and share everything with him. I am thankful that he loves me for everything that I am, and that we can make each other laugh, and we have fun together. I am thankful that I have known him for 29 years, and that our families are the best! I am thankful for Adam and Hallie, and for the joy and happiness they bring to our lives. I love their laugh, and how funny they are, and how sweet and loveable they are. I love how their Dad smiles when he sees them, and how they run right into his arms for hugs, and how much fun they have when they are playing. I love when Hallie wants her Dad to sing to her before bedtime, and she holds his hand and smiles while he does so, and then she rolls over and goes to sleep so happy. I love how Adam holds my arms and I tell him a little story of something funny or sweet he did that day, and he smiles and falls asleep. I am thankful that when they are with us, they are happy and content, knowing they are in a house filled with laughter and love.

Friday we decided to make "Thankful Turkeys". Adam and Dad were a team, and Hallie and I were a team. It was funny to see the kids seeing what each other was doing and trying to copy. Then we wrote down all the things we were thankful for, and now our turkey's are hanging on the wall for everyone to see. What a fun activity :) We hand drew our turkeys from construction paper, so you have to give us a little break in the fact they are funny looking turkeys :)
