Happy Thanksgiving!

How blessed we are to look back on our year with so much to be thankful for! This is me in market as a friend gave me bananas free of charge! She was so incredibly kind and we are amazed how people are so gracious to us! We are slowly getting our minds wrapped around the new language and stow a few more phrases in our minds each week to use as we learn the language! There are so many seasons to life and this is a season of growth and change and new experiences! I'm not sure you know this but before I had children I was an oil painter and since my boys joined our lives I'm realizing my canvas is their memories! Not to say I'll never paint again but we try very hard to make lasting fun memories for them as they grow each day! Today I spent the day cooking our thanksgiving dinner and having them help me bake cookies! We enjoyed our time together as they had a day off from school! It is a wonderful time in our lives and we really enjoy our boys and our family life!
