Happy Thanksgiving

I LOVE Thanksgiving! It is my absolute favorite holiday. First of all, it's a holiday centered around a meal, with your family. Perfect! The day usually includes some board games, a nap, laughter, talking, going for a walk, and many other things I enjoy. This year we are headed to the booming metropolis of Sudan, Texas for Thanksgiving with Rocky's family.

In honor of this wonderful holiday, I have compiled a list of just a few of the things I am thankful for this year. I am putting it to the tune of the song our first graders used to always sing in their Thanksgiving program. If you would like me to sing it for you someday, I would be more than happy to! :0)

There are many things I am thankful for, I can find them near or far. There are many things I am thankful for, let me tell you what they are!
