Thanksgiving's Thanks for the Memories!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYBODY! I hope you're all having a fabulous day with your families. For the Heugatter's, it's very low key. Our family Thanksgiving won't happen till Tuesday, when Dad, Emily, and Luke are all in town. But it's OK - I got to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade (complete with a steamboat float that had an old man with a white beard piloting it... and Captain Bixby was sitting next to me... coincidence? I think not! Ok maybe... but I'm gonna say no!). I watched the Dog Show with Mom, both of us oohed and aahed over the dogs. We were bummed the Crested and the Boston Terrier didn't make the best in show, but I like the Scottie that won. Mom's making potatoes and gravy. And technically I got some turkey... this morning mom made me scrambled eggs and bacon, and shaped it like a turkey... I laughed and said it counts :-). I think we're gonna work on cleaning the house for when everybody gets back.

Today I'm very thankful for family. I definitely have the best family in the world.
This is us at my sister's 1st wedding.

My family is awesome. We're always there for each other, in good times and bad... and we've been through both most definitely. I can definitively say that I would not be where I am today had I not had these 3 amazing people behind me. Each of them is going to get an individual shout out, starting with my sister tomorrow (cause today's a VERY special day for her and I want to share it and can't wait). Then my parents will each get a day. You get the idea.


I hope that wherever you are today, you stop and say thank you for your family, whether it's one you create for yourself with friends, one you and your spouse create, one you marry into, or, like me, one you are so blessed to be born into.

Oh... and I'm also thankful for hunky firefighters that remember me when I stop by their grand opening and say "You're leaving? And I won't see you for a month!" when you have to leave ;-).

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYBODY! Enjoy your turkey... no matter the form it comes in...
