Thankful

Our Thanksgiving began with a family 5k race. Jim and I both pushed strollers filled with kiddos and still posted a time of 31:29. We could have even been a little faster, but got bottlenecked with other runners when the route turned from road to trail. Between the Color Run and this Give 'n Gobble, Jim loves the idea of continuing to do more family 5ks (muahh ah ha - my plan has worked)!

We spent most of our day and turkey meal with my cousin, Greg's, family. It was great to see Mark and Uncle Jim and Aunt Veda! We had great food, great company and great fun!

 

 

We are thankful for our family, our kids, grandparents, brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles and friends whom we regard as family. We are thankful for our Heavenly Father's plan of happiness, for our Savior, Jesus Christ, and for the restored Gospel. We are thankful for the ability and opportunity to learn. We are thankful for the ability and opportunity to be active, to play, to run and exercise. We are thankful for our capable provider, for his stable and challenging career, and a great work environment that gives us all that we need and a lot of what we want. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a stay at home mom and be able to spend so much time with my perfect (for me) children while they are young. We are grateful for our Marriage and for the Husband & Wife relationship. We are grateful for eternal families. We are grateful for so many little, ordinary things that happen each day to make up our extraordinary life.

 

Happy Thanksgiving!
