We give thanks at Thanksgiving.

We are extremely grateful-- beyond measure honestly.  I mean, to say that 'we are so blessed', sounds cliche.  Truthfully however, we are.  We really are. 

A few top things that come to mind: (and in no specific order)
Our health and happiness.
Our beautiful children and the amount of life they bring to our lives.
Ben's clinic/patients and our ability for me to stay at home to raise the kiddos.
Our close-knit families.
Our fantabulous set of friends, and friends of friends!
...and you too, Cali!! :) 

We watched the Macy's Day Parade, put up the tree and holiday decor, then went to Gma VanDever's for a delicious turkey dinner.  You know the saying, "Birds of a feather flock together."  No truer words have ever been spoken. Heehee. 

Ben actually ended up working a 5K that morning, but then the rest of the 4-day weekend was just ours.  Not too much was on the agenda which was a much needed break.  We haven't had four days to ourselves with the kids since ....uh...before Bennett was born?!  It was a wonderful holiday.  Actually, it was better than wonderful.

Two lil turkeys, sittin' in a basket...  (What rhymes with basket?!)
We genuinely hope yours was just as great!
