So many things to be thankful for....

So many things to be thankful for, where do I start??
Ok I have to admit, the first thing I was thankful for this past week was that Tyler finally decided it was more work than it was worth to grow out his hair, so he cut it today. Yeah, I can see his bright green eyes again! :)

We had such a great Thanksgiving week. It felt like all we did was eat all week long. Brent's family was here for the first part of the week and the cousins had lots of fun playing. Tyler and Sydney even spent the night at Grandma and Grandpa Adams house (which used to be where we lived) so that was really fun for them to go back there. We then enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner with them on Wednesday night. We were all there except Uncle Dave and Aunt Heidi, we missed them.

The next day (on Thanksgiving) we had a very quiet and fun Thanksgiving dinner with Grandma and Grandpa Duncan. It was just our little family and my parents, it felt very strange but we loved being spoiled!! We had lots of yummy food and then we went to the movie, Bolt. The kids had fun but they definitely missed their cousins on the Duncan side.

I always feel so blessed to have such amazing family and friends who fill my life with so much joy!

Now the party is over for now and my Christmas crap (as my father and Brent would call it) is all over the house waiting patiently for me to get a spurt of energy. Until that spurt of energy comes and the hustle and bustle begins, I will try and remember all the ways we have been so richly blessed!! (Way too many to list) I am always grateful that another year has come and gone and I still got away with only making the rolls! I know one day this will end and every year I think to myself, "I am going to have to make this big meal for my whole family one day," but until then I will enjoy my mother's amazing cooking! Thanks mom for always making it so special, even if it was just for us!!

**Quick side note to myself....I realized as I was running a longer run today, maybe it wasn't such a good idea to have Thanksgiving dinner 3 days in a row or maybe I should have skipped the pie at least one of those days! :)

Pictures soon to come!:)
