My school semester is quickly coming to an end and I am currently enjoying Thanksgiving break with my family. I am so thankful for this week long break to be refreshed to finish classes strong! This season is so full of memories - remembering old ones and creating new ones.
This year is the first time I am not actually home as the holidays approach but so many wonderful traditions are continuing and the meaning and memories of this time of year are still a part of it all!
This Thanksgiving week we had the wonderful opportunity of spending two days in the beautiful state of Tennessee with some amazing friends... We left this evening and visited some great longtime friends who recently moved here and now will drive a couple of hours to Alabama to spend Thanksgiving and the rest of the week with mom's side of the family. Thanksgiving in Alabama is my favorite Thanksgiving memory ... We used to come almost every year but this is the first time in three years for us to be here for Thanksgiving.
It's amazing how much changes in a few short years and how much people can change ... It's also amazing to see the growth in people and to connect with special people. This season of life sure has been a different one but I am grateful for it and am learning to thank God for every step of the journey.
Remember that you are here for a purpose. Live fully and love fully. And have a happy thanksgiving :)
"Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances."
-1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
