I am thankful for:
Every last stinkin one of them. I am thankful that we are all having Thanksgiving together this year, like we have since a couple years into Stephen's and my dating (about 8 years ago I'd say!). I am thankful that I am blessed with such a unique situation - where my two families get along so well and enjoy spending the holidays together. Neither the Setzler's or the Roe's have much family in town, so we have formed our own little extended family for Holiday gatherings. Christmas is very similar: Stephen and I switch each year who we spend Christmas Eve and Christmas morning with, and then both entire families get together at one house for a Christmas Day Linner. I know this special situation may not last forever, as families extend and multiply in many different directions, so I am VERY thankful that we have been able to enjoy it in this way for as long as we have. It sure does make the answer to the "what are you doing for [enter holiday name here]" question much easier to answer!
I know you dont get to pick your family, but I sure am glad I was blessed with BOTH of mine!
