Thankful

As Thanksgiving has come and gone, we are thankful for so many things.  Zack, the girls and I were able to spend Thanksgiving with my 90 year-old grandparents in Aurora, CO who we had not seen in almost a year and a half.  (In person anyway...FaceTime has come through for us occasionally.)  Every time Ava and Reese are able to spend time with them I am more and more thankful.  My grandparents are a couple that I have always looked up to.  They are faithful, loving, hard-working, loyal, and on and on.  As the girls call them, Gigi and Grampy, are definitely two people that I want my girls to remember for more reasons than one.  I am honored to be their grandchild and I don't think they will ever know how much I love and respect them.

New sleeping bags that Gigi and Grampy bought Ava and Reese...with their names on them!!!







While we were in Colorado we were also able to do an overnight in Estes Park with our good friends the Barstows who used to live in Olathe.  It was wonderful to spend time with them, see the Christmas parade, play in the snow, and of course swim at the hotel!













Some other things we are thankful for...


Good reports on the girls' hearts!



 Time with Grammy and Larry (Culver's, Ihop, and Bass Pro!)



                                                 






Dancing during kids worship time at church (yes, that's Reese dancing in the pink leggings).

The true reason for the season.
