Thanksgiving


Hi!
Long time no post! Happy Thanksgiving. What a great Thanksgiving we had. We went to St. Louis to celebrate. We got to see all of my family and my friends and Nathan's sister Amy and Gabe and Lincoln. We truly have much to be thankful for this year. My kids and my daycare kids had a theme song that we listened to everyday this month called Thankfulness and the main line is "Because a thankful heart is a happy heart" I loved hearing the kids sing it, and I loved thinking of all the things we are so thankful for everyday. We are thankful for our families and friends and all of our needs being met up here in Madison, and of course for smaller things like pumpkinpie and turkey and scented candles, warm sweatshirts and getting to cuddle with our "magic blanket" (my old college comforter that is so soft and worn) and not get too hot!

Here are a few updated pics. We are so excited for this new month and Christmas, which we celebrate all month at the Artz house!
