So Much to Be Thankful For

We were fortunate enough to be able to spend Thanksgiving with both our families. We had Thanksgiving lunch with Jonathan's entire family and then headed down to Indiana for the rest of the weekend. We have so much to be thankful for this year. For those of you who didn't hear, the Geo Metro is no more. :( Last Tuesday on his way to work, Jonathan slid in some icy slush and went off the road into a 10 foot ditch, rolling the car. Praise the Lord he crawled out the back without a scratch. It just makes me so grateful because I know how very different this Thanksgiving could have been. So now we are in the market for a new (used) car! Here are some pictures and video from our time in Indiana. Hope you enjoy them and remember...never take a single day for granted and always thank our Father above for the gifts He blesses upon us.

We took Luke to the zoo for the first time! There's a small zoo in Randolph County (ME's Zoo) that puts thousands of lights up at Christmas time so we decided to venture out in the cold to let Luke experience the animals! He was pretty content in the stroller while we walked through the zoo. When we got to the petting area, though, he was ready to get out! I was surprised the goats didn't scare him, considering they were right in his face, but I guess when you grow up with a dog that size, you get used to it! :)

Luke also got to go bowling for the first time! I think he did better than me...
