Day of Thanks...

Today is American Thanksgiving. It's slightly humorous that a Canadian and a Brit are holding a lil family dinner, but we just can't help but get in the spirit of it all. We hardly eat meat, but Joel had to have a turkey. So, we made the traditional feast. A big ol' turkey, two kinds of dressing (I've officially been in the South too long), roasted potatoes, cranberry sauce and my Grandmother's apple cake. It was lovely. We really have a lot of things to be thankful for. We both have amazing family, friends and each other. I've been thinking a lot about my family today. My dad is going through chemo again and I'm thankful that he is. I'm thankful because it means that he has another shot. It's not a pretty road to recovery in any means, but it's another chance. I wish I could see him and give him a huge hug. I miss him. I'm thankful for facetime and that I was able to see my family back home today. They are the air I breathe. I just wanted to write a little post on this day of thanks. Thanks for reading.
