* Mommy, Daddy, Grammy, Poppy, Satya, and all of my other family members
* those furry, fun creatures that live with us and let me pull their tails and give them "pets"
* Maria, who comes to play with me while Mommy & Daddy go to work and who is simply the BEST (Mommy loves her a lot too!)
* Thomas the Train & Elmo (my two current obsessions)
* French fries - while Wendy's still seem to be my favorite, I don't discriminate and will happily take McDonald's
* this just in - Chicken nuggets (Mommy is REALLY excited because I've added one more thing to my short list of Luke-approved foods)
* the park
* walks in my stroller
* my portable DVD player from Grandma & Grandpa that helped us all survive the car ride to SB
* my binky and blankie
* my home and bed ... I really LOVE to be in my own place, in my own bed (made evident by the 15 hours that I slept the night we arrived back home after Thanksgiving weekend)
* for other things I'm super thankful for, see the my favorite things list on the right hand side - that pretty much sums it up!
Mommy & Daddy are thankful for:
* Luke, who is absolutely the light of our lives
* our families, who are so unconditionally loving and supportive and who we enjoy not only as family but also as some of our best friends
* our pets, who are some of the best teachers of unconditional love
* our friends, near and far, who we couldn't do without
* our beautiful home, which we often don't remember how lucky we are to have because we are only thinking of what more we want to do to or changes to make to it
* our country, where we live safely and freely
* food, which we ate too much of over the last few days
* jobs, which we often complain about, but are so lucky and grateful to have
...and honestly, the list could go on and on...we have so very much to be thankful for.
We spent Thanksgiving weekend this year in Santa Barbara. We had a wonderful weekend surrounded by lots of food, family, fun conversation, and beautiful weather.
Mommy is disappointed in how few pictures she took of the weekend (and just in general lately). She says that she is going to really make an effort to take more pictures in the coming weeks and over the Christmas holiday. At any rate, here are a few from our weekend.
All of us at great -Grandma & Papa's beautiful Thanksgiving dinner table (that's Uncle Ken whose head is blocked by Uncle Todd ... and Mommy is obviously taking the picture):
Satya really enjoying the meal:
Happy Thanksgiving, little boy:
Satya opens a few early birthday presents - and she just loves her fairy princess dress up outfit from Aunt Kathi & Uncle Mike - what a beauty!
Our immediate family (obviously missing our sweet Brooklyn & Linus):
