I'm Thankful For My Family

I have so many things I'm grateful for, and of course Thanksgiving time makes me really sit back and think about it. One thing I'm SO, SO thankful for is my little family. I'm married to the best guy ever. He works so hard for our family and truly wants the best for us. He treats me like a queen, even when I definitely don't deserve it! He is definitely my best friend and we love hanging out together, working together, ANYTHING together! I have the four cutest, most amazing kids, too. They seem to love me in spite of my imperfections, and they've truly taught me so much about what real love is. I love how different they all are, and the great relationship I have with each of them. I've been meaning to post these pictures for a while. I've posted a couple, and I'm sure you've noticed the new one in our blog header, but I thought I should add the rest as well. We went out at the beginning of October to do our family pictures. I wanted to make sure it was still nice fall weather, with some pretty fall color left. It was a little chilly (we went on a Saturday morning) the ground was nice and wet, but we had fun. Our kids are old enough to be quite cooperative, and it makes it so much easier! I set up my camera on a tripod, and used the timer - which I'm sure made things very entertaining for my kids since I had to run back and forth and get into position quite quickly. And with the light blinking, the kids had something to look at... especially with me saying "watch the light... get ready!" They did great! It was so fun to hang up a bunch of new pictures in my living room. That way I can always look at these people that I love so much :)
