Thanksgiving

After everything we have been through the past 6 weeks it was nice to be able to enjoy time with family for the holiday and just relax.

This year Freddy and I had so much to be thankful for. For starters the birth of our beautiful daughter Nora. She has made our lives complete. It was a dream come true when we became a family. We are also very thankful for all our friends and family that have supported us through all of this. We couldn't ask for anything more. Everything from visiting us at the hospital or at home, to making us a casserole or bringing us lunch/dinner, to taking care of things at home for us like taking care of the dogs, cleaning and doing laundry while we were in the hospital, to a simple phone call or text or a simple prayer it all meant the world to us. We are surrounded by so much love!

This year we went to Wisconsin for Thanksgiving. We has such a wonderful time and loved that Nora got to meet tons of the family. I come from a very small family so the fact that Nora can grow up knowing her great-grandma, several great aunts and uncles, and numerous cousins of many degrees is pretty neat. I hope some day she can meet everyone on my side of the family (little harder since they are all in Canada).

Our trip consisted of so many wonderful meals, lots of card games and a little bit of shopping. Never a dull moment when we go to Wisconsin. Nora also got to experience her first Thanksgiving Day Packers game!!                                                        

Congratulations to our good friends Nikki and Eric Wagner on the birth of their beautiful daughter Amelia Kathryn
