TODAY IS A DAY TO BE THANKFUL FOR... AND SO SHOULD EVERY DAY--Happy Thanksgiving AR Friends!

By
Real Estate Agent with Realty ONE Group Mountain Desert

Though it's foggy and damp outside this morning, I am feeling even more blessed than usual. I am opening the doors of my little cabin in the San Bernardino Mountains to many friends and family, some I haven't seen in years.  And that makes it even more special. We'll be crowded, to say the least, but even that makes me smile, as closeness is what the holidays are all about, right?

It's not important that we're dining in a small home. It's not important that the weather is a tad soggy. It's not important if the sweet potato cassorole gets a tiny bit overdone. WHO CARES? We're all here for hugs, laughs, talk and great food.

I wish you and yours a very Happy, Healthy and Fun Thanksgiving!

 P.S.  My oldest son, who I haven't seen in three long years...is here!

Hi Kat,

Happy thanksgiving to you....I just read this to my mom up here in WA.  You said it well, it matters most about being together, not the other things.  Being with family and friends is something to be thankful for......and I am glad you got to be with your son.  Happy
