thankful

This week we celebrated our 3rd Thanksgiving as a married couple.  We continued some traditions and started some new ones.  It went unbelievably well.  I think by the 3rd year we finally have most of the process down!
Old traditions we still got to enjoy...
+  Ethan's parents traveling here from Florida and being with us.+  Ethan's grandparents & aunt traveling here from Oklahoma & Texas.+  Cooking a Turkey.+  Baking yummy pies.+  Decorating for Fall and Thanksgiving.

New traditions made...
+  DIY a Thankful banner... I'm thinking I will DIY a decoration of some sort each holiday.+  Writing each person's name on a piece of paper, pass around a hat and everyone draw a name, then you tell the person that you drew why you are thankful for that person.  I saw it online somewhere and wanted to try it this year, and I am so glad I did.  It went really well, and it was so fun to see what things each person picked to be thankful about to the person they drew.  
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  I really did, last week I found out that one of my supervisors at my old job passed away after only being diagnosed with Leukemia for one week.  It really hit me by surprise.  I think that really made me think more about each person in my life and how thankful I am for them.  Let them know today, because no one is guaranteed tomorrow.
