El Día de Acción de Gracias

Happy Thanksgiving from Savannah!  It doesn't actually feel like Thanksgiving here since it was 80 degrees and sunny.  I actually went to the beach while the turkey finished cooking...

This was my first Thanksgiving without my family, which was kind of strange.  It's also the first Thanksgiving I can remember in about a decade when I didn't have tons of homework to do after dinner.  Instead I happily indulged in watching "Elf" and chatting around the table for hours.

We celebrated with Linda's children and grandchildren, which was pretty awesome.  I really enjoy seeing Linda in the role of family matriarch :)

This year, I have so much to be thankful for.  I have the perfect service placement, an amazing community, and beautiful surroundings.  I think the best part is that last year at this time I NEVER would have predicted that I'd be where I am now.  It makes me pretty excited to think about all the possibilities for between now and next Thanksgiving!

Thank you to all of you who are part of my amazing support system <3
