Grateful

The bread is rising by the stove, the games are picked out and ready to go to Grandma and Grandpa's house, I'm watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on the TV, and I'm about to take a nice long hot shower.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

There's so much to be thankful for this year, it's hard to know where to begin.

I'm thankful that my new job brings me challenges and a sense of doing something worthwhile with myself.

I'm thankful for the fact that I live close enough to family that we've gotten to spend so much time with our loved ones.

I'm thankful for all the wonderful people who took time from their lives to help us celebrate our wedding in August.

I'm thankful for my wonderful amazing husband.

I'm thankful for the opportunities that have come my way this year, for the love I've received, for the new beginnings that Brett and I are creating together as a family.

purchase power

Dear everyone who is trying to convince me that buying things will not only make me happy but that not buying things will make me a bad person,

Kindly knock that noise off.

Thank you,
Kate
