This past week, we had Ali's Thanksgiving Feast at school. I signed up for green beans and left them on the stove to finish cooking while I ran the girls to school and then decided to stop by the office for a few minutes to write a few checks for my dad, etc. I was supposed to be there to set up for the feast at 9:45, got the girls to school at 9:05 and figured I would have plenty of time when I left the office at 9:30 to run home, pick the green beans up and head back to the school for the feast! When I pulled into my house, I realized that I had left my keys and my spare key locked inside the house. Luckily, my house is only a mile from the girls' school and a mile from my husband's office or I never would have made it. Lately, I'm not sure if it is being pregnant, or having two kids and being pregnant, or just that I am losing my mind - but I have been doing lots of things like this and I have felt very thankful to live in our little house (and it's great location) and our little community. Last week, I left my wallet at church and had no idea until one of my neighbor's brought it by our house that day! (this week, I walked out of church without my purse - until Ali realized it and reminded me - see what I mean?? Losing it!) I am thankful for people that look after me when obviously I just can not seem to get it together! :) I am thankful for a husband who loves me (despite my unlovable moments!) and takes care of me, two beautiful daughters that I adore and are at such a fun/easy age (when they are not bickering!), grandparents that help out with my children when I just need a break or a date or to work or to go to the doctor, family that loves us, etc, etc, to name a few! I love this time of year and am so excited for the fun of the Holidays - I know this is going to the best holiday season with my children yet!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
