Thanksgiving Day Wrap Up

This year I definitely feel more thankful. Not that God has been more amazing than in other years or that He wasn't amazing before. He's always been and always will be. I think I've just hit a maturity where I appreciate it more. You younger peeps might just consider it getting older. Well, as my last Thanksgiving in my 20's, I definitely realized how incredibly blessed we are with a great family and friends and jobs and even just great stuff. now I just have to remember to take this gratitude and do more with it.


Holidays are awesome. They also make for long days visiting multiple familys. We started with my mom and grandma, headed to Erica's mom's side, and ended up at Erica's grandpa's house. Here are some photos from the day...
