Starting new traditions..

Thanksgiving has been quite the adjustment since Zach and I have been together.. We both want to spend the day with our families but there is only so much time in the day and food you can eat.. I am learning to adjust to the larger family that I am becoming apart of I do believe that I truly enjoy the larger family dinners.. there's much more to talk about about, more people to see and of course more food!! Although, Thanksgiving seems to be all about the food nowadays I try and remember the meaning of the holiday and know that is about be thankful and I AM thankful for my new family and my "old" family!! Today was a little difficult as it is my first thanksgiving without my grandmother and the shortest time I have spent with my mom on the holiday and though tears were felt I also was greeted by lots of smiles and hugs which made the day wonderful!! Being about to spend the day with Zach's family gives me much hope for our future and I know that I am going to love being apart of this family! I look forward to the many more holidays with them..
