Thanksgiving 2009

Last year, Josh and I sat at a restaurant in Japan with our new friends preparing to share a meal together unlike any other Thanksgiving we had ever experienced. As special as those memories are to us, we are so happy to spend this Thanksgiving surrounded by our family and friends back at home. We are so thankful that we were able to spend time with each of our families and friends and eat some delicious food. Some other things that we are thankful for are...

1. Jesus, HE has been our guide and has blessed us beyond our wildest dreams.

2. The blessing of being married to each other. We love being able share everyday with our best friend.

3. Our families and friends who have been a such a huge support to us.

4. Our jobs. As we prepared to return home we prayed for jobs back in the Mesa Public School District. Our prayers were answered as we now have really great jobs at two wonderful schools in the district.

5. Our church, the bridge and the ministries at the rio vista center. Its so great to be a part of furthering Gods kingdom with such a wonderful church family.
