Giving thanks...

As many of you may know, the Southern CA area was hit with a stream of wildfires recently, as it usually is every year around this time. They were rather large and close this time though, which sent a little panic our way. Many people lost their homes and all of their belongings within minutes. Thankfully, our home and possessions are still in tact and we are thankful for that!




Moments like this make you realize that all you have is such a blessing. How appropriate for this "Thanksgiving" time of year. We were able to get together with friends and family, and even eat some wonderful food! Here is a summary of our Thanksgiving week....

Thanksgiving morning I ran my second 5K, and beat my first 5K time! Aside from it starting late due to rain, and us getting soaked before the race, it was a fun time for Keton and me! There is something nice about seeing your husband cheering you on at the finish line...




Stella had her first feeding...already. She went to her doctor's appointment this week too and she is a healthy 17.5 lbs and 27 inches! Obviously we have a larger than average 4 month old...:) But she is truly happy and content (maybe because she is eating???).
We tried for a family photo on Thanksgiving but of course the girls did not want to cooperate at all:) But that is why we love this picture!


And a few more shots...






What a wonderful time for our family...
We are Thankful for it all!
