Thanksgiving!

I just want to do a short message today. Happy Thanksgiving!!! Whether your gathering with family, friends, or even alone, have a wonderful day! If this is a great time of year for you, count your blessings and enjoy your day. If this is a difficult time of year for you, I pray you feel  the love and peace of friends and family to get you through your difficult time. I just want to say a quick shout out to a few people in particular:


My parents- I love you and am proud to be called your daughter. You are the first people I am grateful for. You taught me how to be a woman with strong convictions. Dad- you taught me how to stand up for what's right. Mom- you showed me that caring for others is not weak but a sign of true strength. I am honored to call you my parents.


My brothers! Where would I be without you?! Thanks for throwing my only child world for a loop! Seriously, thanks for changing that, I'm so blessed to have you in my life! Thanks for forgiving all the mean stuff I did as a teenager and not bringing it up. But especially thanks for being you! Levi, you're such a nice guy and you're so awesome to have deep discussions with! Luke, we both have a similar sense of humor and you allow me to share some of my more "interesting" ideas! Even though you're both younger than me, I learned and still learn so much from you!


My girlfriend-  Thank you for putting up with all my craziness. You came into my life at a very difficult time and never shied away from all the issues I have. You are tower of strength in my ever shifting world. I love you.


My tribe! What is there to say?! You're my fun tribe and you put up with my work wackiness! Thanks for hanging, texting, and many dinners! You girls make going to work a delight (well most days). Plus you care, the texts to check up when things aren't going ok are more appreciated than you know. Love you girls!


Like I said, I don't want to do a long blog today, just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I could go on and on with a huge list of people but I would drive you guys insane! Have a wonderful holiday season and may you all not just enjoy the blessing of the holiday season, but be a blessing to someone as well!
