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.
