Happy Thanksgiving!!

As today being the day before Thanksgiving (aka Turkey day). I thought it would be a good moment to reflect on what I am thankful for and the fact work is really slow. The major ones are my wife who I love and enjoy being around. She keeps me going and motivated to do more. Not sure if that is a good thing at times though, I am grateful for my kids who always make me laugh (even when I need to be mad) and my family who if any of you know my family that is saying a lot, they are great family to be with . I am thankful for a good job, that believes in values that I believe in, as well as good coworkers that get a long most of the time. I am thankful for schooling as much as I hate going all the time, it is nice to know that I am getting an education that will support me and my family for years to come. I am thankful for my extended family (yes, even a grandmother that pulls her dentures out onto the table, a story for another day). I am thankful for a country that gives me the right to do what I want and gives every opportunity to accomplish those dreams. I am thankful for food, sports, my toys (expansive and cheap), house, cars, and everything else I own. I am most grateful for the gospel that I live or try to live on a daily bases; as well as my family heritage with in that same gospel. I am truly lucky to have the ancestory I have. I just figured I should write a few thoughts on what I am grateful for in my life at this time. I thought the picture was worth a laugh for Thanksgiving. If only this could happen. Getting a turkey would be more interesting. That is for sure! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
