Thankful

In honor of tomorrow being Thanksgiving I'd like to mention a few things I am thankful for!

I am thankful for my family.  I'm thankful that I have siblings I'm close with and parents who love us and raised us well.  They kept us in contact with our cousins, aunts and uncles and never let us go without the necessities. I'm also thankful to have had my grandparents in my life for so long. Although two have now passed, I still have two alive and all of them played active roles in our lives growing up, something not all kids have especially at my age.

I am thankful for my in-laws to be.  You hear these stories about how people don't like their in-laws but that is not the case here.  I remember the first time I met them; I went to Aaron's Mom and Dad's house for a Charger game and dinner.  From the moment I stepped foot in the door I felt at home.  Everyone was so welcoming, even little Ryder who had just turned two at the time. They are an extension of the family I was born into and for that I feel incredibly fortunate.

I am thankful for my health, for my amazing doctors at Sharp who have been working to get the Asthma that I have had since I was eight under control and for my maxillofacial surgeon and incredible dentist who worked with my doctors at Sharp to tackle my sinus troubles.

I am thankful for my job and the wonderful people I share my office with.  To have a job in this economy is one thing but to have a job doing something you enjoy while working with people you like is really a bonus. Not to mention the fact that they also pay for my education.

And finally, I'm thankful for Aaron and for what we have together, for his patience and go-with-the-flow attitude. I'm thankful for our home and our "girls".  For the adventures we've been on and the life changes we've shared and grown from.

I hope you all have a most wonderful Thanksgiving (or regular Thursday if you don't celebrate).  What are you Thankful for?
