Thankfulness

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday celebrating with family. We are so blessed and have so much to be thankful for. We have had such a wonderful week and it has made my heart full to spend so much time with the man I love and the little man I love. 

We went to my parents yesterday to spend the day celebrating. I could list so much that we have to be thankful for. Let me try to name a few. Thankful for these two loves of my life and the beautiful creation that God has allowed us to enjoy every day.

Thankful for smiles and laughs. This guy keeps us on our toes for sure, but he keeps us laughing too. He has brought much joy to our lives.

Thankful for an amazing Aunt Keri and Uncle Pete that we love spending time with. They love him to pieces. Please don't let Fulton's serious look make you think otherwise.

Thankful for delicious foods to fill our bellies. We have never been or gone hungry compared to others in this world. Everyone came together to put on a heafty spread for dinner and KK even had a special plate for this little guy.

Thankful for things to keep us entertained. It's the little things that get him excited. He completely re-organized (or maybe mom would say unorganized) the tupperware cabinet after dinner.

Thankful for family. Simply great family. We were blessed to spend time with Matt's precious family this week too and see his grandparents. Missed seeing my other Grandma, but we are so blessed to still have our grandparents in our lives.

More family. My Aunt Ann and Uncle Greg made the drive to visit too. We were thankful to catch up with them. And our little Harley too. He was our first child and has given us many hours of love and kisses.

Thankful for wrestling matches on the floor and we aren't worried about what might get broken (KK might not say that one day when Fulton wails one of her porcelain dolls across the house). Fulton had a blast playing.

Thankful for clothes on our backs and shoes on our feet. We will  never go cold because the Lord has provided for us in abundance.

Thankful for two awesome sets of grandparents that love us and this little man to the moon and back and would do anything for us. This was Fulton by the end of the night. Pretty pooped out, but full. Full of food, love, family, fun, and memories. It was a wonderful Thanksgiving.
