Hello friends,
I hope you’re having a great Thanksgiving Day spending time with the people you love and eating delicious food. Along with watching the parade, having good conversations and slipping into a turkey coma, don’t forget to take a moment to reflect on your own life. I’m sure that there are many wonderful things you are thankful for.

Beyond my family, I’m thankful to live in a country where we enjoy tremendous freedom. I’m especially appreciative for the military men and women currently training and fighting to protect our country.
Likewise, I’m thankful for all the men and women who serve in our medical facilities, police, fire, and emergency services as they work hard today and every day.
