Gobble gobble!

In a time of year that is seasoned with thankfulness, Will and I have once again been reminded of how very blessed we are. We made the 8-hour trek south to celebrate Thanksgiving with Will's family and were able to spend time with some of our closest friends. I found myself deep in conversation with friends that I hadn't seen in a long time. To me, the mark of a true friendship is when you can pick right back up without missing a beat. And while it feels so good to be loved on by friends, it was an even better feeling to see Asher embraced and doted on by those we love.

In some ways, this year has been marked with uncertainty and hardship for our little family. I would've never imagined things would take the shape that they have. However, when I reflect even deeper I realized we are beyond blessed and I am thankful for life as it is. Simply put, this is how our life is meant to be, and I am thankful for each turn and twist life takes.

Our trip to Nashville was packed full. We spent lots of time with friends and family, visited the dog park, went to a beautiful shower for Asher, and even squeezed in a date night (hockey game and dinner!). Here are a few pictures from our weekend down south.
