Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Jen made an amazing dinner:
  • ham
  • homemade mashed potatoes with gravy
  • Stovetop stuffing
  • green bean casserole
  • cranberry sauce
  • rolls
It was fantastic. And then we had a Grasshopper Pie! MmmmMmmm!

It was nice to have a few minutes with just the two of us to reflect on our lives and how thankful we are for each other and all of the people around us. It would be great to have found a good house by now, or to have that next great/high-paying job or some other thing. But we both are thankful for the people in our lives more than anything else. We can go and do great things because we get supported by our family and friends. Even when we do crazy things like announce our move to a city where we have no jobs and no place to live, we get help. We've been offered housing, storage, and job opportunities by a multitude of people in addition to the moral support of our families and friends. WOW.

Thank you to everyone. Thank you for making it possible for Jen and I to live our dreams.
