Happy Thanksgiving!

Andrew and I headed down to visit my parents in Albany for Thanksgiving this year. We had such a wonderful day!

Andrew, my dad, and my brother had "guy time" and watched a little Star Trek on Netflix (Andrew ended up taking a little nap).

My mom and I took the dogs, Nigel and Chrissy, on a walk. It was a lovely afternoon and the dogs LOVED walking through every pile of leaves.

Poor Nigel has arthritis and gets tired and sore on his walks: especially during the winter. He has this cute little doggy stroller that we call the "Puggy Buggy". He LOVES it! Isn't he just so adorable?!

We had a delicious meal full of many of my favorite Thanksgiving dishes. It was fun to be able to really participate in the meal prep and make a few dishes of my own. I brought a pumpkin pie, a salad, and a sweet potato dish. We ate way too much but it was all so yummy. 

 

Andrew and I have so much to be grateful for. It has been an amazing year full of both ups and downs but we are so incredibly blessed and are grateful for every one of our blessings. Most importantly, we are grateful for each other. We are each other's best friend, support system, team mate, cheerleader, and therapist. We couldn't be more right together. He truly is my greatest blessing and I am so grateful to have him in my life for eternity.

After leaving Albany we headed back to Portland to see Andrew's younger brother who flew in from Texas Thanksgiving morning. We didn't stay long because we were all so exhausted but it was still nice to spend a little time with Andrew's family on Thanksgiving.

Andrew and I have been dealing with a little (or should I say big?) ant problem in our kitchen for about a month now. We have had the maintenance person for our apartment complex lay down really strong professional ant bait twice. I have still been noticing a few ants here and there, but when we got home Thursday night they were covering our counters. It made me mad...I cried. I HATE ANTS! Especially in the kitchen. Our landlord is looking into profession exterminators to come out and hopefully get rid of these pesky ants once and for all. PRAYING!

(All the little black dots are ants. Hard to see and this is only a small section of a kitchen counter but they were everywhere.)

 Happy Thanksgiving (and I guess now Happy Holidays!) from the Moseleys!!!!
