Counting our blessings this year

This Thanksgiving is extra special for John and I. Last year at this time, we had no idea what the future had in store for us. We didn't foresee a move, let alone twin babies! We are so thankful this year and count Anna and John among our most special blessings. Although we miss Chicago everyday, we are grateful to have found this amazing neighborhood and place to call home, if only for a year.

Thankful for daddy

Mommy's little turkey is finally zonked out!

We love our turkey bibs from Nan and Pop :)
We continued the tradition of staying put for Thanksgiving, adding two more little bodies to our dinner table, and we actually had a table to eat at this year :) The day started out a little crazy with very unhappy babies. I joked that the babies were going to be vegetarians and were not happy about us cooking a turkey. Anna and John finally settled down by late afternoon and we were able to enjoy our dinner.  Next year we hope to spend the holiday surrounded by family and friends.
