Thanksgiving gave us the time to sit and think of all the things we have in our lives and the people in our lives we are so thankful for!
Like our school and jobs, our cozy apartment, our amazing family in Canada and Montana, grandparents all over North America, friends in the States with new babies and lives, new friends here in Saipan, shopping trips, game nights, and dinners with amazing friends, our very active bodies that keep us in shape and fit, our church family that supports us and grows with us, our "families" here that feed us and love us (thank you Winkfield's and many others- we love you), and it is all from our gracious and loving Heavenly Father.
We are especially thankful that we only have two weeks left of school before Christmas vacation and even more thankful for the part-time teaching job we will have over Christmas vacation to help us make a few extra dollars! =) God is so good these days, we are very happy! Here's some pictures from Thanksgiving weekend to share in our thankfulness!!!
