I am participating in the 30 Days of Thanks by BoogieMum. What a great idea for making November a month of thanks instead of just a day!
I am thankful for this upcoming week. Princess only has school on Monday and Tuesday and then we will have 5 full days will her home! DadOf3 has to work Wednesday too but then we will have him home for 4 full days. It used to make me sad that we never travel on Thanksgiving and usually celebrate with just our little family, but in this life you can either be sad about what you don't have or make the best of what you do have. Since we know we do not travel at Thanksgiving, we can do other things like put up the Christmas tree and decorate for Christmas during the long, long weekend. I can use that time to finish our Christmas letter, get a family portrait taken (with our trusty tri-pod) in front of our fireplace and order Christmas card pictures. Some years I actually have the Christmas cards ready to send by Thanksgiving. Not this year! But our letter is 99% written, and with my handy dandy new duplex printer, printing it will be a snap this year!

We do the tri-pod picture in front of the fireplace, too! Which reminds me, I need to get ours done.
