- I am thankful for dark chocolate. Every.single.day.
- I am thankful for the opportunity to be parents, if only for a little while. The experience is so rich, so difficult, so rewarding, and so valuable to me
- I am thankful that my dad is alive and recovering after a scary weekend emergency that involved time in the ICU, lots of tests, lots of prayer, and lots of worry. I am so thankful for medical personnel and drugs and procedures that work.
- I am thankful for my dearies, Ben and Emma, who turned six today. SIX!
- I am thankful for Chad, who is so reliable and so steady. For his friendship and fun spirit, his willingness to take on the grossest jobs in the house (usually involving poop. Or garbage.), and the silly streak that has me laughing 24/7.
- I am thankful for The Pets.
- I am thankful for the really cool Zune that Chad won in a contest and gave to me! I finally have a cool device!
Thankful for that crew, above. Good friends, good times!

That is an obnoxiously good looking group o’ friends you have there Allyson 🙂
Happy Thanksgiving to you!
