Happy Thanksgiving.

This year I am thankful for a lot of things. First, my cousin Kristen is alive and she has been given a chance to and is able to recover. I am thankful for my two wonderful little boys. I am thankful that Hunter and I came out of the delivery room alive and ok. I am thankful for my current job of being the primary caregiver of my children, even though it is probably the hardest job I have ever had! I am thankful that I have a wonderful husband and that he has a really good job. I am thankful to all of my wonderful family and friends for all the support that we have gotten throughout this trying year. Especially my Mom and my Aunt Julie, they were both AMAZING! I am thankful that my enlistment in the Army is over, and thankful for all the things those past six years taught me. I am thankful that we are in a good financial situation. I am thankful that we were able to buy our first home this year. I am thankful to have a wonderful support system to turn to in the Joy Troupe. I am thankful for so much this year.

On that note, because I am thankful for so much it also means that we were terribly busy. Since I didn’t want to be overwhelmed I decided not to cook Thanksgiving dinner. I felt kind of guilty about it, and it was really weird waking up this morning and not preparing a bird, but tensions and emotions are running high in my family right now. I thought it would be best to not put the stress of doing the traditional thing. Instead we went over to my friend Angel’s place. It was really nice. All the food was really good. Trent had a really good time. We watched a little bit of football, played the Wii, talked with friends. I really enjoyed myself. Since Angel only has her self and her boyfriend she sent me home with a lot of left overs. Rad! (yeah, I just said “rad” wanna make something of it?)
