I'm Thankful for Y.O.U.

Thanksgiving was fun and full of great memories this year. Every holiday is ten times better with a little one around. I love our tradition of going out to a movie, coming back to my Aunt Becky's and munching on snacks while dinner is being prepared. Making a Christmas craft, and then finally enjoying the fruits of our (well I should say Becky and my Mom's) labor. We go around the table and say what we are thankful for, talk about funny stories, and just enjoy the company of the ones we love. Then it's time for another movie (this time more cuddled up) and afterward we finish the night off eating some homemade pies.

This year I am so very thankful for having so many people who love me. I feel so blessed to have a loving family, wonderful friends, a husband who is my best friend, and a daughter who gives me joy everyday.
I love you all!


I really don't think she can get any cuter.
