Thanks Giving

Thanksgiving 2008 was a different one for our family this year. But we were lucky to be able to celebrate with wonderful friends in St. Louis. I made dinner and we had four friends come and share it with us.

Ahenobarbus believes strongly that Thanksgiving is all about turkey and pies, then more turkey and more pies. So Wednesday, Beemer and I made pies! We had a blast making them together.


Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of the actual event, but we had a fantastic dinner. My favorite part of the day was the fact that Ahenobarbus was here all day - that hasn't happened in months! It was definitely a day for giving thanks!

Some things that I am thankful for this year:
A wise, practical, calm, brilliant, and incredibly handsome hubby
A loving, smart, gregarious, and adorable Beemer
A sweet, snuggly, silly, smiley, Audi
Two cuddly, if crazy, cats
A warm house on a friendly street
Family who love and support us from far away
Fantastic friends who love and support us from near and far
Just enough challenges to keep life exciting
