Thanksgiving

The day of Thanksgiving is upon us! Where did Summer go? I often feel that in uncertain times like those we're presently experiencing- being thankful for the many blessings that we DO have and that DO NOT depend on outside forces is even that much more important. I am so blessed to have my wonderful family and husband to ride this wild ride of life by my side.

The last several months have been quite trying for my family as my Aunt and Uncle recently separated and have 2 young boys that are struggling through this as well. That said, I am so thankful that my Uncle and the boys have an incredible support system within the family.

The shining ray of light in these times is that we concentrate on the things that really matter rather than the "stuff" that we have or want or think we need. So this Thanksgiving I want to hold tightly to loved ones, both family and friends, and celebrate family and friendship.

One of my favorite quotes is "If you want to hear God laugh tell him your plans", my isn't it true!

Finally We Have a Blog

So, it's taken us a while to get started on this blogging thing, but I can no longer resist. Some background? This May Wiggy will graduate from Medical School and will begin living the life of an intern!!! Oh, the challenges and victories that lie ahead! Emily is keeping busy with managing the recruiting firm and teaching lots of classes. Racing has been put on hold for a while due to multiple foot issues.... I am learning patience.. I think. We have also become quite involved with our church and a new organization called The House of Service that provides support to single mothers and their children. It's been a wonderful experience thus far. Additionally, we have been taking a course called Alpha that has really renewed our faith in the Lord... I strongly recommend it to everyone!!!
