thankful, well, friday (it was a busy day yesterday)

Today I am thankful for time spent with family yesterday that left my heart full and my sides aching from laughter. I am proud to be part of my extended family (on both sides!), and some recent health concerns heighten my appreciation for time well spent with such loving--and amusing--people. I had such a busy time enjoying myself that I failed to take any photos this year, but rest assured we all looked lovely, as usual. ;-) American Thanksgiving at its best should be a time to take stock of blessings, and I was reminded yet again yesterday of the many I have received.
