Thanksgiving

So for the first time in 6 years we spent Thanksgiving with family instead of with friends. It was nice to have a day with all of my family. I was thinking about who we spent the last 6 Thanksgiving's with...and it's funny, but it was always someone different. In 2002 we spent it with (i don't even remember their names), someone that worked in the Athletics department at the school Rich was going to. This was also the first day that i started feeling like death because little did i know, but i was knocked up with Willow. I honestly thought i was dying or something because i was so sick and had no idea that i was pregnant!!! In 2003 we spent this one and only Thanksgiving alone. It wasn't too lonely though, we had Willow and it was really nice to have a day off of work. In 2004 my sister Steph and her daughter Izzy flew out to see us. It was nice to have her visit. In 2005 we had our awesome friends the Strong's over. We had a great day...except i remember that this day was extremely cold (negative 40 windchills) and our heater worked it's butt off to finally get the house warm. In 2006 we went over to our friends the Taylor's. Elwyn was a brand new baby, so that was stressful, but we had a great day and where grateful to be with friends instead of by ourselves. In 2007 we went to our friends the Jackson's. Willow is best friends with their daughter Maddy (they are the same age) and Elwyn is 'friends' if we could call it that with their daughter Cami (they are 2 days apart). We had a great time and ate some great food.

Anywho...we miss our friends and miss spending the holidays with them, but there is nothing like family:) I hope everyone had an awesome Thanksgiving:)
