Thanksgiving
Monday was my first day back to work after a much needed (and much enjoyed) vacation! Kyle and I had a great time, and I'm so excited to share some fun photos/stories from our trip. That is still in the works though, so for tonight, I'll just leave you with a little of our Thanksgiving.
We were fortunate to get to share time with both families Thanksgiving weekend. We have so much to be grateful for, but here are just a few things that came to mind while we were indulging in a little turkey and pumpkin pie.
1. Togetherness. Not everyone gets to be with their loved ones on holidays and we don't take our time together for granted.
2. The way Asher says Uncle Kyle and wants to play the second we walk in the door.
3. Football. (for Kyle anyway...naps are more my style)
4. Conversations around the dinner table or the newly decorated Christmas tree.
5. The craziness that is the holiday season.
6. Conner's smiles.
7. Missing our extended family. Not everyone misses their crazy cousins, uncles, aunts, etc. when they don't get to see them, but we truly do. It might not be a fun feeling, but I'm glad it's there.
8. Turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie and cool whip...duh
9. Taking time to stop and appreciate what you have rather than focusing on what you want.
10. Bringing a smile to someone's face.
