Happy Thanksgiving

aaron and i are starting a new tradition this year. it is reminiscent to our birthday tradition.

stealing the idea from a friend's family, at someone's birthday, we go around the room and each person has to say why they love the birthday boy or girl. it's super fun for 2 reasons.

1. you hear some really neat stuff.
2. it's the best when someone who doesn't know the birthday boy/girl very well is in attendance and you watch it get awkward when they try to come up with something.

maybe i'm the only one who thinks that is fun.

anyway, we've adapted that tradition to thanksgiving. each person will go around the room and say one reason they are thankful for every person in the room. i like it!

this year we won't be with family (well, blood family anyway), rather crashing a very large non-blood family party, so i don't think we'll impose our tradition on them. aaron and i will begin the tradition with 2 and hopefully have more to share it with next year.

i hope you all have a wonderful thanksgiving and take the time to think about all you have to be thankful for.
the computer you're reading this on!
the eyes you're using to read it!
having something to eat today!
the clothes you're wearing!

i feel so blessed this year and am thankful to my Heavenly Father for all He has given me.
