They say that you don’t know what you have until it’s gone. This is especially true for family, which is why it was such a treat to have my family together to celebrate Thanksgiving. It reminded me of the importance and permanence of familial love, no matter the boundaries of time or distance.
So how did we spend our Thanksgiving?
We feasted.
We enjoyed a little togetherness.
We kicked back to watch America’s favorite pastime. (In case you were wondering, I mean football, not Dancing with the Stars)
We goofed…
…and monkeyed around.
We crafted.
We found a little Christmas spirit.
We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures. ~Thornton Wilder
