I'm so thankful...

for our "Mitchell Family Vacation" in St. Augustine, Florida this year!


And for a beautiful sunrise!


I'm thankful for barefeet in the sand and relaxation.


For pretty mermaids,



sandcastle builders,


and a good moat that keeps the water away!


I'm thankful that Jeremiah found his legs! :)


I'm thankful for cute little seashell collectors,


freckles,


and even bare bums!


For brave boogie boarders that make me laugh with their sounds of victory as they catch a "good ride!"





I'm thankful for skim boarders who make it look oh so easy,




and don't laugh at me - but with me - as I attempt to skim across the cold water... and keep my sweatshirt dry!


I'm thankful for heated pools when the ocean just becomes too cold!



I'm thankful for some good tree climbing,


sweet nieces and nephews - and one on the way! :)



I'm thankful for fun and yummy family dinners, activities (games, turkey treats, paper making, spin art, shopping, movie going - 11 of us at New Moon - so fun), sight seeing, ice cream cones, etc.)


and birthday celebrations!


Oh, and yummy grilled pineapple is the best!


I am so thankful for my family. And I am so thankful we are friends!


Thank You, Tim and Linda, for yet another great year of Thanksgiving memories!
