Thanksgiving!

What a wonderful time of year! I love thanksgiving. It's a great time to be with family and just reflect on all the blessings and things we have to give thanks for. I am extremely thankful this year for everything that I have. I am able to spend Thanksgiving with new members of my family. Since the wedding I have been able to get accustomed to having new in-laws. This has taken some getting used-to but has been a true blessing.

We have a new house this year and we are all very healthy. So many things that we have that we aren't necessarily deserving of.

I feel guilty at times that we have so much but there are so many people in the country (and world) that are barely scraping by or don't even have that much. I feel guilty that I keep so much to myself to plan for the future and keep my family happy. Kristen and I do what we can by donating to the church and giving to other things here and there. But is that enough?

I guess that I will find out the answer to that question soon enough. If there are things that I am supposed to be doing with my money other than the current plan then I am sure that I will be let know soon enough.

Well, as for this post I am done. I haven't written in a while and am going to try and post more. But I have been working a bunch and trying to give some time to school too. I will try to write but if I don't it may be middle of December (after school) that I have time.

Work Work

Things have been quite busy for me lately but I have been much calmer than ever. It is very crazy. I have started working on a project on top of the 40 hours I put in at Unity. Its actually going to be a fun project. I will find it hard to concentrate on Unity work.

So many things have 'finished' up in the last couple weeks. I finished my presentation for school and then finished my test the week after. I didn't have class this week. Things are going great. I have even been able to spend some time working on this new project.

Anyway, not much really to write about here. Just starting to get excited about Thanksgiving too. I am going to be cooking this year. John and Michelle are coming in to town and Chris and Steven will be here too. I have invited my family but I doubt that any of them will show. Mom and Gary are going to Wichita, Dave and Sara said they would keep us in mind and Chris and Chris said the same. Ken is doing stuff with Megan's family.

That's it for now.
