I Am Thankful: Part II

Today has been a steady reminder of all that I am thankful for. I got up this morning to get ready to spend my first Thanksgiving with my husband. Since he had to work though {booooo}, I had to go to him.

Don’t you worry though. We ate just like we would at my grandmother’s house {if not better}. The food was amazing!!! Everyone pitched in and brought something. I am so thankful that Colby works for a fire department that is so family friendly and really cares about their workers.

I am also thankful for these little Indians.

This was my first Thanksgiving experience with my kids at school. I HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO EXPECT!!! However, I have to say that it went pretty well. Next year, I think I’ll be able to prepare a little bit better.

I am so very thankful for the job I have. I would have never pictured myself teaching kindergarten, but it is so much more than I imagined it would be. Kindergarten is not what is used to  be folks! I feel blessed to even have a job because I know there were so many out there competing to get the same jobs I applied for. I work with outstanding people, and I feel truly blessed to enjoy my job.

As for the little things I’m thankful for:

• A good campfire
• Hot chocolate
• Having my Christmas tree up
• Financial stability
• A house to give me shelter
• Terrific friends
• Home cooked meals
• Cooler weather
• Spending every moment I can with my wonderful husband

I hope you all had a terrific Thanksgiving! I’ll have more to share later, but my pictures aren’t quite ready.
