I give thanks

On this Thanksgiving day I look around and see many things I am grateful for every day. I am trying on this gratitude attitude, am having to remind myself sometimes to focus on the positive, but I'm doing it! After two turkey dinner's and yet another yummy family dinner on the way tonight these are the things I am grateful for the most. Friends and family are the very top of the list always, I love you and if I don't say it enough then know you are loved and cared for. Happy Turkey everyone!!



My father has taught me many things in my life and will continue to teach me many more - the main one is love. Maura (or Not-So-Evil-Stepmother) has also come into my life, teaching me many great and wonderful things, they are an amazing couple who compliment each other well. For these two people in my life I am grateful and today I give many thanks for their love!


I give thanks for the lives of my two younger brother's, they are two examples of what I love most in this world. This is one of my most favourite pictures of them, while they were on holidays last Christmas in Florida. I love watching them grow up and these past couple years have enjoyed seeing them grow into the men they will one day become. Yay brother's!

This day and the day my sister graduated are two of my prouder days. I do so love my sibling's and am proud of their small and big accomplishments in life. I wouldn't be the person I am today without all the people in this pic w me.... my sibling's helped shape my personality when I was young and still help shape me now. My sister is away right now and I am so incredibly grateful, thankful, proud and glad she is on such an incredible adventure in Thailand. I do miss her but I know I'll get a giggle and a hug soon enouch. And none of us would be here if it wasn't for our Mama, she drives us to be more than sometimes we think possible. I love you all :)
