Happy Thanksgiving!


Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I hope that you are all having a wonderful day. My family and I are at granny and granddad's house near Fort Worth. The house smells so delicious from all the food cooking in the kitchen. I am taking time to write and check some emails while everything is cooking. I am so happy to be away for the long weekend, but traffic was insane last night! We were stuck in traffic for an hour bumper to bumper heading up to the Fort Worth area. Thankfully the kids slept, and it was not as hectic as it could have been. We got to granny's at midnight, and I went straight to bed! There is something about sleeping at granny's house that makes me so comfy. All I want to do is lay around under blankets! I get the best sleep in this house!

This is our first Thanksgiving without our Great Grandma "Mawmaw" here with us. It is different not having her here. Especially this Thanksgiving because we are celebrating my sister& brother-in-law on their first pregnancy. The baby is due in March. I think both of them are glowing. Their energy is beautiful. I know that Mawmaw is here in spirit, and she is just tickled at the thought of her granddaughter's pregnancy. There are just so many things to be thankful for this year.

I am thankful that I have an amazing husband who loves me. I have two beautiful children that are in good health and happy. We have a huge family of people always offering support and guidance. I have many blessings to be thankful for in my life. Although there are times when I want to lock myself in a room and cry, I have a great life with some of the most amazing people I have ever known. I hope that everyone else knows this love and is thankful as well. I am especially thankful for all of our men and women fighting for our safety and freedom across the world. Thank you for your service. Thank you for peace of mind. Come home soon!

Forever Thankful,
Drea
