My Thanksgiving

Bryan and I have had a wonderful day today!  It all began around 11:30 when my family came over to our house  for a wonderful Thanksgiving lunch. This was the first time that Bryan and I hosted Thanksgiving. Bryan grilled a turkey and it turned out great!  The food was amazing, vegetables, casseroles, and salads.  We ate till we were stuffed!

Bryan and I loved hosting Thanksgiving this year!  We are so thankful to have family close so we can spend our holidays together.  

After dinner, we went to get a Christmas tree which is a family tradition.  We always get real trees on Thanksgiving day from the Christmas Tree Farm. 

I shared with Santa today what I wanted for Christmas this year.  Of course I said a baby and he said he would try very hard to make that wish come true for me.  

I am thanking God today for my wonderful family and traditions that we share.  Days like today make me really appreciate how lucky I am and how much I have to be thankful for.  Bryan is an amazing husband who I am thankful for every single day.  My parents and in-laws are the best!  I am so thankful that we can all spend holidays together instead of rushing around trying to spend time with everyone in different places.  Maybe next year, we will have a little one to include in all of our family traditions!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!  Let the Christmas decorating begin!!!
