Thanksgiving

As this day comes to a close I realized that we haven't really talked a lot about what we are giving thanks for this holiday season. Well it may be obvious that we have a new family member that we are very thankful for. We are thankful that she was born healthy. We are thankful that I had a safe delivery. We are thankful that Corey was able to get the time off from his new job to spend time with us the first week.

But even before she was born we had a lot to be thankful for. I am thankful for my job at ASU--my dream job at my favorite place (go SUN DEVILS!!). And even when I am stressed and things are crazy at work--I remember that this is 100 million times better than working at UOP. We are thankful for each other--we have been through a lot as a couple but have found strength in each other. We are thankful for our families who have been supportive of us even if they didn't agree with all of the decisions we made (of course now that they have Danica to play with they forgive us for everything) :).

And we are thankful for our friends who have always been there for us to make us laugh or help us think through a new idea or make plans for things we want to do.

Overall we have a lot to be thankful for. But today we will share with you some of our thanksgiving pictures featuring the person we are most thankful for this year:

Danica in her Bouncy chair that Aunt Shirley gave her with her outfit from Bradi--Danica is a cowgirl already:

Danica looking around--ahh she is so cute!!
