Thanksgiving 2011

What a GREAT DAY!

Last night my Parents drove up to Phoenix and left me behind in Tucson. I got off work a little later than expected, so I told them to go ahead with out me. I called up my Grandma Gray and asked to catch a ride up with them, and that was that!

I woke up this morning in a great mood. My heart was full of gratitude towards well.. Life! I have a great Husband who uplifts me daily, great parents who love and comfort me at times of my stress and meltdowns from the long distance of me and Ben, and amazing siblings and brother-in-laws….and a soon to be sister-in-law, and loving grandparents, and Amazing Australian In-laws. I feel like I am adopted into this amazing Aussie Family due to my amazing and hunk of a husband! I just have a great family all around!
