VERY Thankful

This Thanksgiving, I was very thankful to spend time with a house-FULL of family at my mom's. My grandma and aunt/uncle from Kansas, my great aunt from Texas, 6 cousins and a dear family friend from Louisiana, my brother from Oregon, and brother+wife and son from California. We had such a joyous time celebrating our Thanksgiving meal together, playing games, and solving the world's problems! Our current house on base is 30 minutes from my mom's so it was more fun to stay at her house with everyone. We waited until after the bulk of people had left on Friday morning, and then moved in and stayed through the weekend.

Daddy Bear got sick, I got run-down from not napping and not sleeping enough at night, and Little Bear hit his max on people-time and sharing a couple of times, but other than that we had a GREAT time and were so grateful for a full Thanksgiving. This will possibly be the last Thanksgiving we are all together since we will be moving many miles away, to the state of Washington in the spring.

Here are a few pictures from our gathering:

I am so very THANKFUL for all the blessings in my life! And most thankful for my faith and family!!! I hope you had as much to be thankful for this year!
