Gobble Gobble

Thanksgiving is a day that was created for farmers to celebrate a good harvest. They would choose their largest turkey (or whatever) and celebrate with a big meal. This year Dana and I have alot to be thankful for in the harvest of our life this year. Just to name a few:
1. A family back in the Okanagan and Lower Mainland who love us very much and have proved when push comes to shove will support us in our dreams.
2. New friends and a new home who we absolutely love and are looking forward to getting to know deeper.
3. Three successful and safe moves across the country.
4. Two very healthy and well adjusted children who, in spite of their crazy parents, seem to be settling into life.
5. A love that with every passing day gets deeper, and this year we celebrate 5 years of marriage and over a decade of being friends.
6. A growing and deepening faith that reveals more to us daily than we ever thought imaginable.

And of course the list goes on and on.

We hope this Thanksgiving is not only one of yummy food and warm company, but one that you can look back on the harvest on your own life and be thankful.

There really is so much to be thankful for...a lot of which we take for granted. Great post Susie!

Like Jen, I will be copying you by doing a post on what I am thankful for.
