It’s a day of gratitude and thankfulness and I just wanted to say that I’m thankful to all my blogging friends and followers. You all have made this past year so enjoyable with our wonderful exchanges.

I love the Thanksgiving holiday because it’s so focused on family. I’m beyond grateful for my amazing family and I’m thrilled to be spending Thanksgiving with my Mom and Dad. They live in North Carolina and have decided to spend the winter with me in Texas! This is the first Thanksgiving that we’ve been together in a very long time. I’m always busy sitting dogs and so have missed many holidays with family. I’m thankful that my brother and sister-in-law will be coming to visit in January. I’ve been in my new house since 2003 and my brother hasn’t even seen it yet!

I’m grateful for my two goofy greyhounds Picasso & Luca who make my life complete. They keep me laughing all the time. I’m thankful for all the dogs who come to stay at my home and for all my dogsitting customers who continue to entrust me to care for their precious animal companions when they travel.

I’m thankful for all the incredible friends I have in my life. I don’t know what I’d do without them.

May you all be spending this fabulous day with loved ones and rejoicing in gratitude for that blessed love. Happy Thanksgiving.
