Thanksgiving

This year I realized there are a lot of things to be thankful for. First off, Jesse and I bought a house, and we have filled it with much cheer and happiness. I was hired at L-1 about a week ago and I feel like I'm getting a refreshing new start. Life with Jesse has brought me much joy and has helped me continue to grow. I am always thankful for friends and family -- all are in good health after a great year. Thank you to all my friends who were able to come to our housewarming, Jesse and I enjoyed having you all here and everything went extremely smooth. It was all we could ask for.

I am also thankful for the beauty of nature and the animals that surround my life. Attached are some photos I took this weekend.

Sugar has been my faithful friend for almost 13 years. She is a loving, sweet, totally amazing girl. She is getting older these days, and I always make sure to give her my love whenever I am home in Maine.

Fin is Sugar's two year old "brother". Though not really related, they are siblings through and through. Fin is the pesky little brother who won't leave his grown up sister alone. They are a perfect pair, adding humor and spunk to everyone's lives.

And I'll leave you with a peaceful and serene picture I took at the beach. The beach always helps to re-center me and bring me back to earth. I am so thankful for the place where I grew up.

Happy Thanksgiving y'all!
