Happy Thanksgiving

I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving! Spending time with family and watching the Cowboys game have been our traditions for a long time, and this year was was no different. The unfortunate thing about this year’s celebration was that Gary was sick and running a fever for most of the day. Why is it that sickness always hits you at the worst times? He did a good job of making it through the festivities, but I felt bad for him, being sick ruins your fun (believe me, with as many times as I’ve been sick, I know firsthand how much it stinks).

I have so many things to be thankful for this year. I could never list all of them, but here are some of the things for which I am most grateful:

• The unconditional love and faithfulness of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ
• Being able to wake up every day and share my life with my best friend, Gary
• The best parents, in laws, and family a girl could ask for
• Friends who don’t give up on me even when I’m busy and overwhelmed with life
• Surviving the Collaboration launch at work this year
• Holidays, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas
• The opportunity to live in the USA where freedom and liberty are granted to all
• The amazing beauty found in God’s creation
• The Cowboys win (okay, I know it’s trite, but I’m still happy they won today)

Okay, that’s my short list. What’s yours?
